Ever wonder where your
money goes when you
attend a fancy function like
this? Thanks to our generous
sponsors and auction
donors, every dime you
spend here tonight at the auction and on ticket sales
will be used to pay a new group of scholarship
recipients’ tuitions! We have no overhead expenses
because all of our operating and fundraising costs are
covered by donations allotted just for this cause. So rest
assured, you are really shopping for a cause, and who
doesn’t like that?
Want to donate more? We’ll take it! Find one of our
Board Members who will take you to a volunteer who
can help you. We accept cash, checks, and credit
cards.
Interested in joining our cause? We are currently in
search of Board Members with a variety of skills:
Marketing, Fundraising, and just plain old Worker Bees,
but most importantly, people with a heart for kids like
ours. Contact Niki Shaheen at
[email protected] if you’re interested.
Know someone who qualifies for our scholarship? Pick
up an application at the registration table located in
the entryway.
