Silent Auction to Benefit the COL Scholarship Fund
In these challenging economic times, more and more often we are hearing from members of our community who would really like to attend a class or event, yet are unable to due to financial constraints. COL is addressing that need by offering more lower-priced and even some free classes, as well as by more often offering sliding scale opportunities to attend.
If you are willing to support us in supporting others in our community, we request a donation of an item or a service (massage, house-cleaning, mediation or coaching session, etc.) for our Silent Auction. All proceeds will be allocated to our Scholarship Fund. If that's something you would enjoy offering, please contact the office as soon as possible so that we can begin to let others know what to look forward to. 415-924-5483 or info@celebrationsoflove.com
