Habitat for Humanity of Cass and Schuyler Counties will hold their annual fund raising auction on Saturday, April 4th starting at 10 AM. The auction will be at Chester Enterprises, just north of the Beardstown bridge near the junction of Routes 67 and 100. This auction is one of several annual events that keep the Habitat ministry alive and energized. It’s a fundraiser. It’s entertainment, with some of the region’s best auctioneers at the microphone. It’s lunch. It’s an opportunity for Habitat’s widely spread family of volunteers to meet in fellowship before the summer building season.
The success of Habitat’s auction depends on the quality and quantity of items donated to the sale. This is a golden opportunity to peek in the attic or the garage; find that dusty treasure that you always wanted to use, some day, and put it to work right now. Let it stand in the sunshine of the auctioneer’s table where it will work two miracles: it will bring joy to the winning buyer and it will contribute to building the next Habitat house.
Habitat is accepting new and good used items as donations to the auction. You can bring items to the auction site on Friday April 3rd from 4 to 7 PM, or on the day of the auction any time after 8:30 AM. Gift certificates are welcome, but please don’t offer alcohol, food or clothing. To coordinate donations call Janet Detrick 217-322-3583 or Megan Rebman 217-491-1715.
