UUs Just Wanna Have Fun: Foothills Annual Fundraising Auction!

We are thrilled to share that the Foothills Annual Auction is coming up on Sunday, October 15, from 5-8 PM! Register today!

The Foothills Auction is a significant driver of our impact! At our 2022 Auction, we raised $25,962 to support Foothills Unitarian’s mission to unleash courageous love and $6,202 to support the mental health of LGBT+ children and youth on the Western slope – all because of people like you!

There are three main ways to be part of our Auction impact:

1. Donate an item, experience, or social event. The possibilities are endless, from a delivery of homemade muffins to a ride to the airport, from a vacation rental to hosting a themed dinner party! Donation forms are available at foothillsuu.org/auctiondonation – This form also has more information and donation ideas.  

2. Bid High and Often! There is a Live Auction on Sunday, October 15, from 5-8 PM. There will also be an Online Auction from October 10th to 17th. This year’s Live Auction theme is UUs Just Wanna Have Fun (80s costumes encouraged!). We’ll have a bodacious buffet dinner. Beer, wine, and sparkling water will be available for donation. Some of the Online Auction items will be displayed for you to check out, and you can even bid on your phone right there! Then, we’ll enjoy the Live Auction with auctioneer John Clatworthy. You won’t want to miss this night of fun, so save your spot before October 8th!

3. Become a Business Sponsor! We’re excited to announce the return of business sponsors to this year’s Auction.
