Description

On behalf of the students and families at The Saklan School, I am writing to ask you to consider supporting our 70th Anniversary Auction Gala. Our event will be held on Saturday, April 26th, 2025 at Lafayette Park Hotel. We anticipate a vibrant and fun-filled evening, and with your support, we can make this event a tremendous success.

The Saklan School is a Preschool through 8th-grade independent school known for its outstanding Project-Based Learning program. Our mission is to challenge students to think creatively, act compassionately, and live courageously. We believe our innovative programs empower students to explore new ideas, tackle pressing challenges, and develop the courage to make meaningful changes in the world. Our programs also speak to a larger idea: redefining what education should look like.

Please consider donating an item or gift certificate and help us make this event a success.
All donations will be used in either our silent or live auction, with proceeds directly benefiting our students and allowing us to continue fostering creativity, innovation, and personal growth in our community. Making a tax-deductible donation to our auction will also provide valuable exposure for your business to our families and supporters across the East Bay.

Donations are requested by April 11, 2025. Donors will be acknowledged in our annual magazine (sent to all current families, grandparents, prospective parents, and alumni families), as well as be acknowledged on our website, and in the auction catalog.
