Do you attend any charity auctions, dinners or galas? They are huge around here, NE Ohio and it seems to be the season for them, you could probably find one every weekend! This past weekend was the big one benefitting a local hospital, black tie and ballgowns with tickets starting at $200 plus all the live and silent auction items. Of course businesses buy corporate tables and can write it off, so a lot of people aren't buying tickets out of pocket. We didn't go, but a number of our friends did and social media was lit up with everyone all gussied up. We are going to one next month to benefit the local domestic violence shelter, it's not quite as expensive but will still be a nice event and I'm looking forward to going and supporting a good cause. Anyway just curious if these events are as popular other places? Oh, it also seems every single non-profit in this state has a 5K run too! No shortages of ways to donate money!
