YW Basket Fundraiser

In case you did not get a chance to see the sign up… The YW are holding their annual camp fundraiser at the Cinco De Mayo Celebration on May 2 at 6:30pm.

We are asking for people to donate themed "baskets" for auction. Technically they don't have to be in baskets. Some examples that have been donated in the past are:
•Scrapbook baskets
•FHE Kits
•Services (photography sessions, birth announcements, pre-made scrapbook pages, house cleaning, etc)
•Quilts
•Baby baskets
•Cakes and pies
•Summer fun baskets (included buckets, beach towels etc)
•Manly baskets (grilling, golf stuff)
•Larger baskets (In past year people have had success getting people they work for to donate Astros box tickets, teeth whitening packages, etc).


We ask:
•The cost of the basket is kept under $30 (If you want to donate something larger just let us know and we’ll put a minimum starting bid on it. Our goal is to have baskets that families can afford and that the baskets auction for more than what they are worth, but it’s also nice to have a few nice packages).

•Don’t feel like you have to buy things, some homemade things have gone over really well in the past.

•Make a small sign or let us know all the products in the basket so people don’t dig through them.

•If you are donating a service please make a poster or sign describing exactly what you putting on the auction block.

•Our goal is 20 baskets

•ALL BASKETS ARE DUE – WED April 29th to someone in the YW presidency or Marie Palmer


The YW will be donating “Service Only” baskets so they are not putting money in to get money back…..look for lots of babysitting packages.

All proceeds will go to buying basic equipment for camp and helping subsidize the camp fee for the young women.

If you bid on basket, please remember you checkbook - all proceeds with be processed through the church on tithing slips. There will also be a box just for cash donations.

If you would like to donate or have any questions, please contact Emmaly at fenren03@hotmail.com or Marie at mariegpalmer@gmail.com. Please include your name, contact and a short description of what you would like to donate.


We appreciate all the support and look forward to a fun night!
