Just a few hours ago, the annual Source Charity Auction went live, meaning you can now begin bidding on the bevy of items we have available. All 150-plus items were donated by local businesses and the proceeds from the auction — all the proceeds — will be given to the Central Oregon Veterans Outreach (COVO), a local nonprofit that assists military veterans in the region.

We profiled the organization this spring and again in the issue that hit the streets today. A special thanks to our office manager, Susanne Flynn, who once again orchestrated an amazing auction. And thanks to the businesses that donated, too.

Needless to say, this is a good cause and we hope you’ll get online and begin bidding.
