Each year Carlisle’s two Rotary Club Presidents identify one project or organization to be the focus of their holiday auction. Selected this year was Success by 6, the early childhood initiative of the United Way of Carlisle & Cumberland County that works to ensure all children are prepared to succeed by the time they enter kindergarten.
Given the amount that Rotary has raised during previous auctions, a goal of $20,000 was set to be applied toward Success by 6. To reach this goal, club member sponsorships of the auction totaled over $14,000. The dinner auction itself raised just under $10,000 bringing the total for the auction to just over $24,500. Achieving this goal was only possible thanks to the generosity of Rotarians and local businesses who donated items to be auctioned.
