Description

As the oldest AMI-accredited Montessori school in Washington, DC, Aidan is proud to welcome students from diverse backgrounds. This auction is key to maintaining that diversity. In the past, auction proceeds have allowed 25% of our talented students to receive Financial Aid packages ranging from 10% to 95% of tuition. Our Auction to Fund Students helps maintain the special socioeconomic diversity of Aidan’s student population. This is important to Aidan, and essential to quality Montessori education and our world.

Our goal is to raise $120,000 toward our Financial Aid Program and we anticipate approximately 160 event attendees composed of our parents, board members, staff and friends of Aidan. Your generous donation would be acknowledged in the following ways: In our auction catalog sent to all members of our school community; On our auction website; At the auction event itself on our donor & item display; In school communications & social media posts to our community about the auction.
