Jeff and Becky Whiteford's (the owners) first passion is helping this generation of youth keep the right focus in life. Jeff and Becky have spent the last 30 years in business as well a youth & family counseling ministry helping and counseling youth and families across the country. Jeff and Becky have used the auction business to supplement their counseling ministry income in order to be less of a financial burden to local ministries. Most of our counseling is offered at no cost to families. The business has also allowed Becky to spend most of her time with their 6 children . Jeff and Becky's 3 daughters and 3 sons have played a crucial role both in their business and youth & family ministry.
