The Midlothian Junior Woman's Club sponsors a Silent Auction to benefit the Mylicia Markham Leadership Scholarship. This scholarship is awarded each spring to area high school senior girls who are attending college in the fall. Scholarship recipients exhibit a strong leadership role in their community, as well as dedication to community service. The Silent Auction is at the MJWC Ticket Booth.

The Festival is sponsored each year by the Midlothian Junior Woman's Club. The proceeds from the Festival support the Cinderella Dreams Project and are donated to community organizations such as Richmond Friends of the Homeless, Warren's Hope (a non-profit group dedicated to helping children with special medical needs), the YWCA and many more. Your support, as a patron, food vendor, crafter, entertainer or Festival attendee, enables us to give back to our community. We thank you!
