Jackson Free Press

Purses with handles and cupcakes for eating
Bath salts for soaking tied up with strings
These are a few of my favorite things.

Julie Andrews was spot on in the "Sound of Music": Our favorite things have the ability to lift our mood and our spirits.

Find some new "favorite things" at the silent auction on Saturday night at the JFP Chick Ball. The auction will begin when the doors open at 6 p.m. and end at 10 p.m.

We have received amazing donations from generous Mississippians from all over the Jackson metro area and the Gulf Coast. To get a sneak preview, we've compiled this silent-auction guide so you can stake your claim early.

All proceeds from the silent auction will go toward the Center for Domestic Violence legal fund, which provides assistance to victims of domestic violence and their families.

It's not too late to donate. To donate email {encode="[email protected]" title="[email protected]"}, or call 601-362-6121 ext. 16 or drop off at Hal and Mal's from 2 p.m. until 7 p.m. on Friday, July 23.
