Mentorship program hosts virtual auction, gala

Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Oregon will host a hilariously beneficial evening of comedy, auctions, and awards on November 12. The 23rd annual Comedy For Kids’ Sake event will unfold in local homes in a virtual gala.

The organization invites folks in Sisters to set up a party pod and bid on favorite auction items, view the video presentation, and contribute to the cause.

The event will kick off on November 5 as Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Oregon opens their online bidding platform to the public. The comedy special will be available for viewing any time after 4 p.m. on November 12.

A variety of party pod options are available to support the night. Contact Jenni Garner, [email protected], for more details. Party Pod supplies are limited.

BBBSCO is a mentorship program under the J Bar J umbrella. Children benefit from a caring adult mentor who can inspire their potential. The organization lost its main fundraiser this year due to COVID-19. The High Desert Classic equestrian event is not only a major fundraiser, it has become a signature Central Oregon event.

The auction and event will provide funds to continue operation of the program. For more info visit www.bbbsco.org/events/comedy-kids-sake.
