Description

Funds raised through the fundraising Fete are exclusively directed to the financial aid fundwhich directly supports our mission to create an inclusive and diverse community of lifelong learners.  In the current economic climate, many families in our community face deep financial insecurity, increasing the need for financial aid, which supports ⅓ of Lowell students.

With this in mind, the next auction will be held on April 29th, 2023. The items you donate will be displayed on our auction website and in our auction catalog, which is viewed by more than 500 families, grandparents, faculty, alumni, and friends of the school. Top items will be auctioned live the night of our event. Items can also be promoted on our social media sites which reach more than 3,400 dedicated followers. Lowell School is a 501(c)(3) organization, so your donation is tax deductible.

In spite of the pandemic, last year’s auction raised more than $200,000 for tuition assistance, thanks to the generosity of businesses like yours. We would be most grateful for your support this year. A donation form can be completed online at www.lowellfete.org or you can email us at lowellauction@lowellschool.org. Donation forms are due by March 17, 2023.

On behalf of Lowell’s students and teachers, we wholeheartedly thank you for your consideration and generosity. We look forward to showcasing your donation as we maintain Lowell’s principles of inclusion, diversity, social justice, and action.

*Please note Lowell can not accept donations that involve guns in any way, even for hunting.
