THIS JUST IN:
Our school will host its 16th annual Benefit - Fall Harvest - on Saturday, September 30, 2017 at the Michigan Union Ballroom, on behalf of our Educational Trust Fund (ETF.) The evening will include a strolling dinner buffet, open bar, silent and live auction, charitable games, and live entertainment with dancing.
As you think ahead and plan to attend this special event, invite others from school to join you! It's a fun celebration. Next (fiscal) year our school will receive an award in the amount of $92,000 from our ETF, the highest ever. Proceeds from our annual Benefit help us grow our ETF's principal; as of March 31, 2017 our Trust Fund's balance totaled $2,056,318. As the principal grows, so does the annual award to our school to support operations and help keep tuition affordable. I hope to see you at the Benefit on September 30th!
