Description

We are a group of parents and teachers that work together for the good and future of our children.  Since 1950, the educators at ILS have strived to nurture the students both academically as well as spiritually.  There are no taxes or government funding to assist the teachers and volunteers and staff as they instruct approximately 110 students in Preschool (ages 3 and 4) up to 8th grade as they grow through Christ, while receiving a high quality, affordable education.

We are holding an auction to raise funds to assist our school in acquiring items necessary for a quality education including updating our computer lab with up-to-date software, purchasing classroom supplies, providing field trip funds, and assisting with the athletic program.  We are also raising funds to help offset the costs for recent and future building repairs which were necessary including making the school safer, along with wanting to add air conditioning to our gym.

The auction will be March 9, 2024 at the Higginsville Community/Senior Center 2100 Walnut St, Higginsville, MO 64037.  The cost is $30 per person, which includes a dinner and fundraising activities. We estimate that 300 people will be attending this event with a goal to raise $20,000 for the students of Immanuel.

In order to have a successful auction, we would like to ask you for a donation to be auctioned off as either a silent or live auction item. We will be advertising our auction locally and through social media.  We would request any consideration of a donation be available by February 25, 2024 to ensure we can get a picture and add the business to our list of donors on a poster when our guests arrive.  Because we are a non-for-profit organization, your donation could benefit you financially. We would like to thank you in advance for your consideration in assisting our efforts.
