Online Bidding with Greater Giving


What You Can Expect

This year’s auction will use Greater Giving Online Bidding – allowing for a paperless bidding system. You will bid using your smartphone or tablet on silent auction items. Also, you can easily track Packages by “following” their activity without having to continuously return to a table or bid sheet.

The Humane Society of Cowlitz County and the Board of Directors would like to pay a special tribute to honor Dan Evans, who recently passed.
Dan was an amazing supporter of our shelter and our community.
He was a great advocate for the animals and was instrumental in getting our new building project off the ground and running.
Dan loved attending our Auction every year even flying home from a vacation in Arizona early one year just to attend.
Dan could always be seen in at our Auctions with a smile on his face and his paddle raised in the air for our shelter animals.
 
His generosity and loving heart will forever be appreciated and remembered.
