"Havana Nights" Silent Auction & Gala
|
On Saturday, March 5, 2016, Shepherd of the Valley Lutheran School will hold its annual Silent Auction. This event is our most important event of the year, as it not only provides a terrific social event for our families, but also provides significant funding to special projects.
Families are requested to solicit donations from businesses they patronize. All donations need to be accompanied by the donation form. Donations are due no later than Friday, February 19, 2016, or they will not be able to be used in the event.
Attached are the Request Letter and Donation Form for our Annual Silent Auction. Please take the letter to your favorite restaurant, play place, store, salon, massage person, etc. and request a donation to be used at our event. We are a 501(c)(3), and donations are tax deductible. The more variety of items we have, the better the event will be.
Thanks in advance for your help!
