 BIG TICKET ITEMS AND BUY-IN PARTIES NEEDED FOR THE AUCTION

The online auction is quickly approaching and will be held from March 17-24, 2023. The goal of the auction is to raise funds for our school. To make the auction a success, we'll need your help!

Have a vacation home that you could lend out for a week? Have extra tickets to an event or show? Please consider donating them to the live auction to make the gala extra fun! Email AlcottPrepAuction@gmail.com with any questions or see the info under the "Spring Benefit" page. And remember, we're happy to collect donated items of any kind.. nothing is too small! All the funds raised go directly back to Alcott so we can continue being the best!

We are also looking for hosts to donate a Buy-In Party. What is a “buy-in”party? It’s a party hosted by you at your home or location of your choice. Parties can be for adults, kids, or both. During the auction, people will buy a ticket to your event (the price is set by you) which will benefit the Friends of Alcott silent auction. The money you spend to host the party is tax deductible! 
Examples of parties have included Persian Dinner Night, Rum & Cigars Night, a Cinco de Mayo-themed party, cake decorating party, and more! If you need ideas, reach out and we can help brainstorm ideas! Fill out this form if you would like to participate!
