The auction benefitted our YWCA Clark County, offering life-changing services for victims of domestic violence, sexual assault, child abuse and homelessness; and four other outstanding local charities including:

1. Metropolitan Family Service, which helps to strengthen families and individuals while enhancing their participation in community life;
2. New Avenues for Youth, which helps homeless youth overcome tragic childhoods, exit the streets and become productive members of our community;
3. Friends of the Children, a mentoring program providing at-risk children with sustained adult role models;
4. Trillium Family Services, providing family-centered, mental health services for children and families.
