Your item helps build a rightful place in the community
An Evening to SPARCle is SPARC's signature annual celebration, and the silent auction is one of the evening's most important sources of support. Every dollar raised goes to work in our centers.
If you own a business, represent one, or simply have an experience worth bidding on, we would be grateful for your donation. Gift certificates, tickets, getaways, services, tastings, rounds of golf, jewelry, artwork and unique experiences all bid especially well with our guests.
Please submit your donation by Tuesday, October 20, 2026, so that we can include your business in the gala program and our printed materials.
