Six Ways You Can Help

De Portland à la Lune, FAIS 24th Annual Gala - Six Ways to Help

Celebrate your child’s early successes and support their next adventures! Would you like to be involved with the largest community event of the year? Here are several ways to help:

  • DONATE Know someone famous? Have a line on a great getaway? Our success largely depends on the generous donations of vacation homes, air miles, out of the ordinary experiences, tickets, fabulous dinners, great wine, you name it. This year’s Gala Committee is working hard to procure fresh new ideas that appeal to our community. Need ideas? Check out our wish list. Click here for a donation form. Gala procurement closes Wednesday, February 29. Can’t meet the deadline? Contact auction@faispdx.org.
  • UNDERWRITE Cash donations help keep costs down and increase our profit margin – which means more money for the operating expenses at our school. You can even direct your donation to a specific item or package. All underwriting gifts are 100 percent tax deductible.
  • SPONSOR or ADVERTISE Own your own business? Support our event by sponsoring the Gala or advertising in the Gala catalog. We print and distribute 500+ catalogs and encourage our community to patronize our event sponsors. Your generosity as a Gala donor, sponsor and/or advertiser will be showcased to several hundred community members and business leaders through our widely distributed catalog, bimonthly newsletters and school website. Download a sponsorship or advertisement form.
  • VOLUNTEER in whatever capacity works for you. It’s a great way to get involved and easily retire volunteer hours. Day of Gala hours count double! Clean up hours on Gala night count triple! We depend on volunteers for our success! Contact auction@faispdx.org to get involved.
  • ATTEND Our success depends on ALL of us! Mark your calendars for Saturday, March 31, 2012 at Montgomery Park. Bring your friends – many packages are fun to coordinate group bidding and purchase.
  • DO We can’t do it without you. Do what works best for you, but please, DO!
