Delphi Employee Donates Plate for Charity Auction

For the past three years, Delphi Employee Melissa Agueros has been creating and donating art glass projects for the Michigan State Holiday Bazaar and Charity Auction.

Melissa's aunt works for Michigan State and encouraged her to get involved.

"Three years ago my plate went for $100. Last year I made a Michigan State serving tray, and this year I'm donating another plate," said Melissa.

The proceeds from the auction go to benefit the Toys for Tots program for underpriviledged children.

Melissa, who works in Delphi's call center, says everyone in customer service gets excited this time of year. "They look forward to seeing what I'm going to make and donate," she said. "It's for a really good cause."

The auction will take place the first week in Decemeber.

Note: Delphi no longer carries the MSU pre-cuts seen in this photo. You can now purchase a full range of collegiate pre-cuts here. This project was made with System 96 Aventurine Green Glass, Spectrum White Opal Glass and the 11-1/4" Origami Bowl Mold.
