Spring Fling, one of the most important fundraisers of the year is coming! Fun for all! Because we are now responsible for all of our own funding, we need your help. Please help us by supporting our program and mission, our staff, our building upkeep, electricity, and MOST OF ALL our food for the poor and weary college student among many other things. This year alone, the Wesley Center has opened its doors to over 40 student organizations at the University of Oregon. Our space is always free of charge for the invited student groups and we aim to keep it that way!
The meal, ala our local chef Blake English promises to be amazing: wild salmon, chicken or veggie platters.
Here is a preview of the auction items if you want to take a look at what will be available.
