The Division of Student Affairs and Campus Life (SACL) has held its annual auction of gently used goods each Thanksgiving week for the past few years. This auction has raised nearly $1,000 for on-campus charities including Caring and Sharing and the Chapel Emergency Fund.
This year, for the first time ever, we will be opening this auction to the entire campus community! Come to IC Square from 2:30 to 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday, November 20, to bid on items that fit the description "one person's junk is another person's treasure" (and support sustainability at the same time!).
All proceeds from this year's event will be given to the Chapel Emergency Fund to support students and staff in need.
We are also collecting warm winter gear for the Rotary Club's "Share the Warmth" campaign. Bring a new or used (gently used and clean) jacket or coat or three of these items (hats, gloves, scarves) and receive $1 toward your auction bidding.
If you have any questions, contact Doreen Hettich-Atkins, chair of the SACL Staff Development Committee (dhettichatkins@ithaca.edu).
