During the live auction, a fund the need portion was also held where individuals pledged donations to the purchase of a new roof for the pantry. The funds raised were earmarked for a new roof since there were multiple areas leaking inside the building. Funds were also raised and earmarked for the repaving of the parking lot since there were multiple, large potholes that caused clients challenges with their vehicles while driving through the service line each week. Funds were also earmarked for repairs needed in the aging buildings (over 30 years old) such as floor, ceiling, and dock door repairs. Remaining funds were designated to
