"We're asking our supporters to spread the word and encourage friends, co-workers and family members to participate in this online auction said Celia C. Ayala, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer. "All proceeds from this auction will directly benefit the children whom we serve, enabling us to continue making high-quality preschool accessible to four-year-olds throughout Los Angeles County."

LAUP raised nearly $16,000 by selling 82 items during last year's auction. "Our goal is to surpass those numbers this year for the benefit of the children we serve," said Dr. Ayala.
