Welcome to the 20th Annual Westside SPIRIT Auction. This year, we're GUNG-HO for Westside, and Working Together for our Children!
Most funds raised during the auction will go to the operating budget to fill the gap between tuition and the actual cost of a year of education at Westside. During the live auction, there will be two other opportunities to give directly to a cause - one will increase the amount we're able to give out for tuition assistance, and the other will be determined at a later date.
Every auction needs the help and support of its community, and here at Westside that means YOU! We look to our parents, grandparents and friends to help us procure items and to attend this event. It's lots of fun! And with your support, it will be incredibly successful!
Keep in mind that our procurement deadline is really early this year - January 29th! Invitations will go out the last week in January, and the auction is March 7th! We will have an online silent auction a couple of weeks before March 7th. Stay tuned for more information.
