The Deacons of Elkton Presbyterian Church normally run a Tricky Tray fundraiser on church property. Due to the 2020 pandemic, we have had to “rethink” our fundraiser for this year, and have decided to convert it into an Online Silent Auction. Hosting the fundraiser online will of course allow us to protect ourselves and our church members against the virus. Our Silent Auction will be available online for bidding from November 1st through November 29.Our Silent Auction will raise funds to help the homeless and needy throughout Cecil County, MD – but mainly in Elkton, MD. The area has increased over the years with homelessness, and our fundraiser allows us to help those who need assistance with food, medical needs, paying bills and more. Over the years, we have assisted over 13,000 individuals/families, and we hope to continue this mission for many years to come!We will also be collecting monetary donations through our Silent Auction to help raise money to fill our Food Pantry. We were struck quite hard with our Food Pantry with requests for food before the pandemic, and recently those numbers have greatly increased. This has become very taxing on our Food Pantry, and we want to have it stocked as much as possible. Our goal – simply put – is to assist as many as we possibly can.Please feel free to bid as often as you want and please remember that all funds raised go to the Deacons needy family Fund and our Food Pantry, also overseen by the Deacons.Due to state pandemic regulations, our 15th annual EPC Tricky Tray event was converted this year. We are so appreciative of all the businesses, individuals and families that donated, and we want to ensure we put those donations to good use to help Elkton Presbyterian Church's Deacons' Needy Family Fund, as well as, The Food Pantry.To do so, this year we are running an online Silent Auction featuring donations that are normally collected for the Tricky Tray. Since large group gatherings will not be allowed in the near future, an online Silent Auction was deemed the best way to ensure we don’t miss out on this fundraising opportunity for our church and community.
