Making it Home Charity Auction

Become a Sponsor!

Sponsors & donors

One of the best ways to support the non-profit work of Home Repair Services is to co-sponsor the 2008 Making It Home benefit auction. Your much-needed cash donations will help us serve more than 3,400 low-income families in Kent County every year. You’ll also enjoy a tax deduction and many other benefits including free publicity and tickets to the event!

Home Repair Services is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Four levels of sponsorship are available for the 2008 auction:

  • Rooftop Benefactor (gifts of $5,000 or more)
