43rd PAULIST CENTER AUCTION
SATURDAY MAY 2, 2026 6:15PM

We are closing the books on the 43rd Annual Paulist Center Auction!
And asking you to Save The Date for 2027!

We want to thank everyone who helped make this year’s auction a very successful one for the Paulist Center. Given the feedback we’ve received it certainly met the FUN-raiser goal for all who attended. Likewise it exceeded the FUND-raiser goal, as it was one of the most financially successful auctions we’ve had. All of that is thanks to you!

The Auction raised over $86,000 of revenue for this fiscal year. Of that money, $12,850 was raised and matched to upgrade the sound equipment in the auditorium. This event is an incredible team event, with many people pitching in to help keep our costs down. Incredibly, our expenses will only be around $8,000. Through the generosity of community members and generous vendors, an additional $3,000 was donated by specific and dedicated contributions – not to mention all the donations for the actual auction items. We budgeted for $70,000 in income and $15,000 in expenses and we have surpassed both of these goals!

The breakdown for the event:

Sponsors: $23,752
Attendees: $ 8,250
Live Auction: $24,620
Silent Auction: $ 7,825
Dessert Auction:$ 2,045
Raise A Paddle: $12,850
Bar: $ 2,024
Raffle: $ 5,365
Total Expenses: $ 8,000

Next year’s Auction will benefit by an earlier Easter in 2027. So please mark your calendars for Saturday, April 10, 2027! We will not interfere with either end of the school vacation week or the Walk For Hunger weekend!

Co-Chairs of the 43rd Annual Paulist Center Auction
