What is Dining for Dollar$ 2020 Edition?
If you are new to First Church you may be unfamiliar with Dining for Dollar$. Begun in 2005, Dining for Dollar$ quickly became our most popular collection of fundraising events given by many different hosts throughout the year. Our hosts – church members and friends just like you - offer fun, social events such as dinners, tours, adventures, and workshops. We bid on the offerings in an online auction throughout the month of May. Dining for Dollar$ is built on the concept of members creating and hosting fellow church members and their families & friends for dinners, teas and picnics, museum tours with lunch, pool parties, brunches & barbecues, cooking classes, and other events. We raise as much as $60,000 towards the church's operating budget. This past May we had to forego our yearly auction as it became clear that in-person events were not feasible. We hoped the situation would enable an auction to be held sometime in 2020 and we budgeted raising $35,000. Instead, we are improvising with a Dining for Dollar$ 2020 Edition that will enable us to reach our goal of $30,000 while still providing opportunities for everyone to participate.
