The Children’s Auction, an annual event dedicated to assisting children and families throughout New Hampshire’s greater Lakes Region, is seeking community support as organizers grapple with pulling off the event during the pandemic.
A significant percentage of event proceeds has traditionally come from Patrick’s Pub Mania. With help from Rochester, NH-based Eastern Propane & Oil, Patrick’s will hold a fundraising event “It’s for the Kids Community Challenge” to entice the community to help with grass-roots fundraising, according to The Laconia Daily Sun.
“We’re hoping to inspire as many people as possible to join a team and help raise money and proudly display a special gift” said Allan Beetle, Co-Owner of Patrick’s.
Anyone that sets up their fundraising page and raises $100 by Tuesday, Dec. 1, will receive a special “I Took the Challenge” t-shirt. Teams that raise over $500 will also receive a hot/cold tumbler with the same logo.
