The John Hay auction is April 6, 2013. This fun filled gala event will be held at the Seattle Center’s Fisher Pavilion. Mark your calendars!
In addition to the actual night of event, we will again be having the online auction through Bidding For Good.
The John Hay Foundation’s annual auction raises funds for many vital programs that are no longer funded by the school district. Money raised through this event will be used for math and reading tutors, music, art, Spanish, sports equipment and more.
More than ever, we must rely on you to continue to support our children and their future. Your auction contribution enables our students to participate in a well rounded curriculum essential for an excellent education.
