The Auxiliary of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Scottsdale is a hard working group of more than 150 women dedicated to improving the lives of our community’s children. A valuable source of support, they contribute many volunteer hours and the profits from this event and others will benefit the Club members of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Greater Scottsdale. Since 1964, raising money for the Club has been the focus of the Auxiliary. The Auxiliary is also responsible for staffing the Thrift Shop, located just south of downtown Scottsdale. Among all of the events of the Auxiliary, the centerpiece is the annual Holiday Event that includes a fashion show, boutique, silent auction, raffles, elegant lunch and much more. Members work year-round to make this luncheon one of the premier events in the Valley.
