The idea is to give donors examples of events and activities they are helping bring to those in our community who need it most
Tix for Tots is hosting its first gala and auction fundraiser on Friday, June 6 starting at 6 p.m. held at Firmly Planted Homeschool Resource Center, located at 14001 SE 1st St., in Vancouver.
A variety of amazing performances will be shown by local artists, from dancing to singing and more. The idea is to give donors examples of events and activities they are helping bring to those in our community who need it most. Treats made by local bakers will be served, and there will be a silent auction with lots of great items, including donations from businesses like Wilco, Jamba Juice, Northpointe, Play Street Museum, and Nothing Bundt Cakes. James Oneil will be the emcee for the evening.
