Near and Far Aid 2022 Gala: The Silent Auction is Open and Here’s a Glimpse Behind the Scenes!

Greetings!

You are invited to partner with Near & Far Aid as we celebrate our 26th Gala on May 6, 2022 (TONIGHT!) at Mitchells of Westport. The annual Gala is our largest fundraising event and attracts wide-ranging support from many stake holders in our community Your support through auction purchasing makes it possible for us to fundraise with outstanding results. Merchants, both near and far, have played a critical role by donating to our auction which has a reputation for offering a well-curated catalog of highly desirable experiences and impossible to get items.  

THE SILENT AUCTION IS OPEN! Here’s the link to browse!

Last night, volunteers came together again to help with the auction set-up while professional teams worked to creatively transform our local Mitchells store into a glorious Gala setting on the French Riviera for the guests tonight. Here is a glimpse behind the scenes.

Near and Far Aid is an all-volunteer fundraising and fund-granting organization dedicated to eliminating the causes and effects of poverty in Fairfield County, Connecticut.  We accomplish our mission by finding and funding programs that provide life’s most basic necessities, as well as those that seek to achieve lasting change.  Our history of funding spans 68 years and since the year 2000 we have granted more than $19 million to community programs that work to support and create opportunities for underserved individuals and families in our community.  For more information on the work we do and our events, please visit www.NEARANDFARAID.org.
