GraceWorks "Big Birthday Match" Auction

Thank you for visiting the GraceWorks "Big Birthday Match" auction. All money raised through this auction will go to help GraceWorks offer assistants to nearly 10,000 neighbors in need.

As a participant in this online auction you may bid and submit proxy bids through July 15th.

What is a proxy bid? When you go online to bid, you can tell GraceWorks the top bid you are willing to make and the increments you wish to counter bid. Then, if anyone bids at the silent auction on Thursday night while you are not there, some stealthy Proxy Attendants will represent you by writing your bid in. So, you could win from the comfort of your couch!

GraceWorks began in 1995, when area faith leaders and concerned citizens came together and decided Williamson County needed a central place to send people who needed help with food, clothing and financial assistance. By pooling church resources with private and public sectors, GraceWorks can provide more help for many needs to better serve our community, rather than duplicating efforts. While the resources we offer are important, it is the relationships we build and the communal ministry opportunities we offer that fulfill our mission statement: “Neighbor serving Neighbor, by the power of God’s grace.”

Today, GraceWorks is the primary community resource center for people seeking assistance in Williamson County. More than 270 volunteers show up each week to make a difference and serve the 10,300 neighbors we see each year. Our office in Franklin offers more than 15 services and has established a referral network with more than 80 partner agencies to provide help for immediate and long-term needs.
