About Our Event

About Our Event

Welcome to the 26th Annual Guardians Gala.  We are so excited to be back in person this year on November 19th at the Richmond Country Club.  This event will sell out quickly so be sure to get your tickets on October 7th as seating is limited.  As Gatsby says, "A little party never killed anyone." (Great Gatsby Movie 2013)


As many people know, our annual guardians gala is our biggest fundraiser of the year.  It is through our fundraising efforts that we are able to provide the day to day items our students need to have the best experience at our school.  Most recently our gala proceeds have been contributed to the Maker Space, Outdoor Creative Space, as well as classroom enhancements including sensory lighting, LCD projectors, ChromeBooks, and iPads.  This year we are continuing to work towards the purchase and installation of an inclusive and accessible play structure.


As part of our community and supporters there are multiple ways you can help us reach our goal.

1.  Purchase an event ticket and join us at our Gala on November 19th

2.  Visit Clickbid often to view and bid, bid, bid on our amazing auction lots

3.  Donate an item for our auction.  

Do you have your own business that you might be able to donate your services?  

Do you have a timeshare or 2nd property that you donate as part of a travel experience package?

Consider getting together with friends to make an interesting themed auction lot.

Do you know a local vendor who may be interested in donating or sponsoring our event?
