NJAWBO Charity Auction to Benefit YWCA Domestic Violence Program

The Union County Chapter of NJAWBO invites you to this fabulous auction and networking event on Thursday, November 29th, 2007 from 6-9:30 PM at L’Affaire, 1099 Route 22 East, Mountainside, NJ. Tickets for Dinner are $40 for members and $50 for non-members.

Our Annual Charity Auction will benefit the YWCA of Eastern Union County’s Domestic Violence Transitional Housing program. Union County NJAWBO will be raising money to "Adopt-A-Room". Through the proceeds of this auction we hope to provide the appropriate small appliances, furniture and accessories to offer a comfortable environment for women in need of safe harbor. Transitional Housing is urgently needed in Union County. This program will provide the time and supportive services to help women gain the skills they need to become independent and self sufficient and lead violence-free lives. Your participation will help to reach this goal. Here's how you can help:

Eat and Be Merry: Enjoy the cocktail hour and dinner while networking and be entertained by auctioneer extraordinaire Eileen Shrem during the Live Auction portion of the event. Eileen is a long time NJAWBO member and supporter who is sure to generate lots of laughs with her quick wit and fast tongue. Tickets for the event start at $40 for members and $50 for non-members.
