LATEST NEWS
Theft at OA Office
We are heartbroken that our office located in Millcreek was broken in to on the night of April 23, just days after the end of our virtual auction fundraiser. They stole technology, cash and silent auction items donated by our Utah community. Most of our auction donors had not received their winning items yet. We would be grateful for your donations to help us during this time and recoup some of what we lost. Every dollar will help! Iniche!
