FUNDRAISER

THE SALVATION Army Women’s Auxiliary recently held its annual purse auction to help raise funds for the many programs supported by The Salvation Army, said auxiliary spokeswoman Juanita Oliver.

“Carter Stine, of Twin City Auction, was the auctioneer who has donated his time every year for the auction, as has Cindy Sexton, who was the emcee,” Oliver said.

“The Salvation Army plays an important role in helping many people in the Chattanooga area. The Women’s Auxiliary supports the annual Angel Tree program, helps with underprivileged women’s issues and is involved in disaster relief,” she said.
