Auction items are needed for the RCHS “Sit. Stay. At Home” online auction

With virtual becoming the new normal, the Rutland County Humane Society (RCHS) will be holding on online auction to raise needed funds for the animals in our care. The “Sit. Stay. At Home” online auction will run for two weeks in July and will be fun for everyone.

RCHS is in need of auction items and are looking for donations. RCHS is hoping to keep it local, to help some of the local businesses during this difficult times.

If you have the means, buy a gift card at a local business and then donate it for the auction! It’s a win-win. Great for the local economy while helping the animals. Donated items will also be accepted. Items do not have to brand new but in good condition with a recommended value of at least $20. If you have a quality item you would like to donate or have any questions about the auction, please contact Amelia at [email protected] or 802.483.9171 ext. 208.
