Do you have a favorite nearby business or two (or more!)?
The Auction is hoping to receive many gift cards/certificates, items, discounts, etc., from local businesses as we have in the past. The best way to make that happen is person-to-person contact. If you can help, even a little bit, please contact Mary Rouse. She has signed UUFWS letters which highlight our social justice work in the community, from which you can both draw for your visit, and then leave with the business, plus official receipts should you receive something during your visit.
She will be tracking where the Ambassadors want to go, so no business will be solicited twice. All you have to do is contact Mary and let her know which businesses you would like to visit, and she will pass on the letters and receipts. And there is a list being generated which includes all the previous generous businesses, which might inspire your consideration. We can start this endeavor in about a week, and hopefully conclude by mid-September.
