ONLINE: Friends of MSCR Auction

media release: The Annual Friends of MSCR (Madison School & Community Recreation) Auction takes place on November 1-12 at 32auctions.com/mscr2021. Friends of MSCR is a non-profit organization that supports MSCR programs and services. MSCR's proud history of service began in 1926, and Friends of MSCR is committed to ensuring that MSCR public recreation programs remain accessible and affordable in the future.

Since 2013, the Friends of MSCR has gifted over $480,000 to MSCR. These funds support new program initiatives and essential equipment including outdoor and environmental education, adapted recreation and inclusion services, Latino community outreach, afterschool clubs and neighborhood center programming, to better serve the Madison community.

For example, Friends of MSCR provides funding for outdoor adventure programs to Madison families that may not otherwise have access to these activities:

“Friends of MSCR allowed us to offer 10 free paddling opportunities this season. We partnered with 3 neighborhood community centers -- Warner Park, Goodman and MSCR Meadowood to do targeted promotion for these events and were able to serve a variety of youth and adult community members with free paddling experiences.”

Support a variety of accessible public recreation opportunities including free outdoors programming, and bid on an array of fabulous items in the 2021 Online Auction!

This year's Online Auction is supported by the following generous sponsors:
