SERVICE AUCTION
![]() |
The Annual Service Auction is a Community fundraiser, held the second Saturday of March, that provides scholarship money for education. Graduating students of St. Columba's Grammar School in Newark, New Jersey are supported so that they can go on to Catholic high schools. Additional money is used to support grade school tuition at St. Columba's and other educational projects approved by the Community. This auction is also one of the main social events of the year. Community members get to know one another better through the selling and buying of services from one another. Members of this Committee choose a theme, publicize the auction, solicit services to be donated, publish a services booklet, advertise within the Community, provide decorations, and prepare and serve food at the auction. The Committee's first meeting is held in January. |
