Literacy Volunteers of Somerset County Garden of Literacy Brunch and Silent Auction
November 8, 2020 @ 11:30 am - 2:30 pm
The Literacy Volunteers of Somerset County’s 5th Annual Garden of Literacy Brunch and Silent Auction will be conducted on Nov. 8 at The Olde Mill In in Bernardsville. (The event was originally scheduled for April 19 but was postponed).
The event include a deluxe buffet brunch, and gift baskets in a silent auction. The Outstanding Service Award will be presented to Patricia Flannery, a LVSC Board of Trustees members since 2008.
This is the organization’s largest annual event, but it had to be moved because of the COVID-19 pandemic. The organization’s volunteers continue to tutor students virtually, and connect the students to additional community resources.
Sponsorships to the Garden of Literacy Brunch are available; tickets are $70 per person.
