Support our supporters!!
Ah….the catalog is off to the printers and thus the second step of this process called the Silent Auction is launched. The first, of course, being the hours spent in soliciting our many and varied donors (parents included.) A diverse and talented lot they are, one and all. The Silent Auction is the largest fundraising effort (besides a Capital Campaign!) of the school and would not happen without the continued generosity of all our donors, large and small. We would like to take this opportunity to remind you the blog reader to support those who support our wonderful Wellspring!! (See the links in the sidebar for the websites–for those who have them–of businesses who donate to us.)
In the next few days–photos of the items will start to appear on this blog. Stay tuned!!!
