Description

Our annual Gala & Auction is a special evening where we come together to support the French American School of Puget Sound. During the dinner, there will be a program highlighting the school’s mission and accomplishments, and we’ll host a live auction along with a "raise the paddle" segment to support our key initiatives. Proceeds from the event benefit the school's bilingual education programs, while our paddle raises will specifically support school technology and the endowed scholarship fund.

 

Funds raised during the Gala & Auction will directly support the continued excellence of our bilingual education programs at FASPS. These funds will help enhance classroom experiences and strengthen our endowed scholarship fund, ensuring that our diverse community of students continues to thrive and access the exceptional education we offer. With your support, we can make a lasting impact on our students, teachers, and the future of our school.

*While all donors will be listed on our Gala website, please note that live auction donors will be included in the program and newsletter varies.
