7ª Gala Anual de Corações e Mãos

The Connections annual gala is right around the corner on February 28, and preparations are in full swing. This special evening not only celebrates our amazing students, but also raises awareness and the critical funds that allow us to provide the many specialized services and programs that are not covered by the school district.

​

To make our silent auction a success, we need your help securing auction items and business sponsors. Above you will find links with ideas for auction items, a sponsor, and an auction items solicitation letter from the gala chairs, as well as a form to be completed and returned with any item you are able to donate or secure. You will also find a donor letter that you can share directly with businesses, family, and friends who may be willing to support our school with an item or sponsorship. If you prefer, our team is happy to email or mail these materials to potential donors on your behalf.

​

Here are a few ways you can help:

• Ask your favorite restaurants, salons, gyms, and local shops to donate a gift card, item, or experience.

• Send in lottery tickets or money to puchase auction items

• Reach out to your employer or businesses you frequent to inquire about sponsorships or auction donations.

• Share the enclosed donor letter and sponsor form and return any completed forms and items to the school by the requested deadline.
  ​

Connections relies on fundraising throughout the year to sustain high-quality programming, therapies, small class sizes, and community experiences that help our students thrive. Your participation—whether by securing one item or several—truly makes a difference for every student we serve.

​

Thank you in advance for your partnership and support. Together, we can make this year’s gala an unforgettable and impactful evening for our Connections community.​​
