Help support our mission—all auction proceeds benefit Families Together Cooperative Nursery School in Chicago's Edgewater neighborhood. We are proud to be the only cooperative nursery school in the Chicago area that offers a sliding scale tuition. This tuition model, along with financial aid, makes our high quality education affordable for families of all income levels.

How do I pick up my items in person?

After the auction ends, items can be picked up from Families Together: 1500 W. Elmdale Avenue, Chicago, IL 60660. Pick up days are currently scheduled for Friday, April 21st and Saturday, April 22nd, or by appointment. Items requiring pick-up before April 21 (due to event date or redemption requirements) can be picked up by appointment.

How will my items be shipped to me?

We use UPS Ground for all items that require shipping (unless event or redemption date requires expedited shipping), and winners are responsible for all shipping costs. UPS insures items up to $100. We will insure items over $100 by request and at winner's expense.
