Auction Results
More Than $25,000 Raised

The Rotary Club of Thomasville hosted its first online auction earlier this month – with a few additional items live auctioned at our Dec. 5 evening holiday party.

The event raised $25,105 – after expenses for the holiday party and miscellaneous auction costs. This money will support our club's community service, youth projects and other programs throughout the year.

Thank you Marta, Mary Beth and Chandler for your work on this big fundraiser and thanks to everyone who donated items or helped publicize the auction among their friends and families. We are hopeful for even better results next year!
