What’s Up This Month
April / May 2006
These are items that are donated by various local and national companies than we have a month long silent auction for people to bid on them. In the past, Wal-mart has matched what we've been able to raise to donate to the Richmond SPCA. For the past three years we’ve promoted the silent auction benefiting the RSPCA, raising thousands of dollars annually; each year surpassing the year before.
