Dear Parents, Local businesses sponsor our Gala & Auction at varying contribution levels to offset operating expenses in exchange for promotion in our print and digital communications leading up to and during the fundraiser. Forward this proposal to businesses wanting to provide monetary or catering donations in exchange for promotion to our loyal parent community and broader online auction community.
Dear Community Partner,
After a two-year hiatus, the Spruce Street School’s Annual Gala & Auction is back in June 2022. The Gala&Auction is the Parent Teacher Association’s largest fundraising event of the year. We aim to raise funds for arts and enrichment programs, library equipment and staff, professional development for our teachers, and classroom upgrades for our children - all costs not covered by the Department of Education budget.
To offset event administration and catering fees, we are asking local businesses to sponsor this fundraiser at one of the contribution levels below, or via in-kind donations. In exchange for your support, we will be happy to promote your business to our loyal parent body and bidding community leading up to and during the Gala & Auction:

Catalog Inclusion: “Thank You Silver Sponsors” and page ad
