Payment for auction items will collected at the event - we can accept payment by winners in the form or check or credit/debit card.

At Greensboro Downtown Parks, we prioritize relationships with our community. Every fundraiser has to have a goal, but we want to tailor this event's goal to building friendship.

This year's Friendsgiving fundraising goal is for each attendee to become a 2021 Friend of the Park for as little as $5/month. At the event there will be plenty of ways to join us in meeting this goal, and we will be acknowledging each attendee who commits to friendship with the parks with a commemorative sticker to wear with pride and encourage others to join the club.
