TCMO Charity Auction begins Dec. 7; bid online, in person

While this year’s Twin Cities Men’s Organization Christmas Shopping Spree for children and youth in need was cancelled because of covid-related restrictions, Fulton Independent Schools’ and South Fulton Schools’ students will still benefit from the T.C.M.O. Charity Auction, scheduled to kick off Dec. 7 at 7 p.m. online, through Facebook social media. Bids on all donated items to be auctioned may also be submitted, and all items up for auction viewed on site Dec. 11, from 12 noon to 6 p.m. and Dec. 13 from 12 noon to 3 p.m. at Constant Auctions, 304 East State Line, in Fulton.

Throughout the school year, administrators at each school in the Twin Cities will stay in touch with T.C.M.O. leadership, and notify the organization’s members when needs arise for children and youth, such as clothing and other essentials. The T.C.M.O. membership will then provide the funds for the purchase when needed.
