Dear Sacred Heart Parents,
Welcome back to school! We are excited for this year’s auction on February 5th at the Bellevue Hyatt. Our theme is MAD FOR PLAID! In addition to being our largest fundraiser of the year, the money we raise will supplement the schools operating expenses not covered by tuition, as well as a targeted project (TBD) to benefit our annual paddle raise called ‘Fund-a-Need’. The auction is also our party, our investment, and our chance to show support for this special school that we love. It truly is an event NOT to miss! Thank you in advance for all your efforts toward a successful event!
Procurement & Donations : Procurement deadline is October 31st
The success of our event depends on the quality of items we have to auction, and your role is incredibly important in making this happen. We are hoping that each family can donate and/or procure one item worth at least $200 (or two $100 items) for the auction. We don’t expect you to run out and purchase something toward this effort. There are lots of creative ways to procure items. Below are some ways you can donate to the auction:
- Procure an item to donate: Do you have access to unique, fun items one can’t buy? We are especially grateful for items like backstage passes, use of vacation homes, signed sports memorabilia, etc.
- Purchase an item to donate: Please see our Amazon Wish List for items to round out our silent auction.
- Donate cash: Cash is ALWAYS appreciated! It gives us the flexibility to help procure needed items.
Procure early! For those who procure at least $200 in value or cash by Thursday, Sept. 30th you will be entered into a drawing for a “Show Your Heart In Silver” ticket which includes dinner for 2, VIP access to the auction, a SWAG bag and more!
Feel free to ask us for ideas, or to ask us for help. We have two primary goals for this year’s auction: Raise lots of money and have a fun night out as a community!
