United Way to hold online auction fundraiser during month of June

United Way St. Croix Valley will be running its third annual online auction throughout the month of June. All proceeds generated by this year’s auction will be used to support programs that provide basic needs like food and shelter in St. Croix, Pierce and Polk counties.

Each week from June 3 to June 30, United Way will post new donated items and services on eBay. This year some of the items that will be offered include two four-day passes to Country Thunder featuring Jason Aldean, Toby Keith and Blake Shelton; $100 gas gift cards; $300 worth of stamping and crafting supplies; and a variety of sports tickets and memorabilia from teams including the Green Bay Packers, Milwaukee Bucks, Milwaukee Brewers and Minnesota Twins.

You may visit United Way’s eBay page directly at myworld.ebay.com/unitedwaystcroixvalley to see what is currently for sale or visit www.unitedwaystcroix.org and click the link on the homepage.

United Way’s online auctions have raised approximately $4,800 in the past two years. United Way hopes this year’s auction will raise even more to benefit St. Croix, Pierce and Polk counties.

For more information on the online auction, contact Kate Smith at (715) 377-0203 ext. 103 or ksmith@unitedwaystcroix.org.
