LFC Holiday Party Silent Auction
Gala/Party for Lake Forest CollegeDec 20, 2019 from 12:45 PM to 3:00 PM
Lake Forest College asks that you please take a few moments to learn about our upcoming silent auction and consider participating by donating a good or service. On Friday, December 20, 2019 we will host the Lake Forest College Eighteenth Annual Charity Auction.
This year, the event is dedicated to raising donations for the Lake Forest College Student Emergency Fund. The Student Emergency Fund, overseen by the Dean of Students Office, assists Lake Forest College students with high financial need by providing support when they need assistance with unexpected, unforeseen, and unavoidable emergency expenses that might disrupt their academic career. Examples of costs that may be covered are medical/mental health copays; books or other essential academic expenses (other than tuition and fees); replacement of essential personal belongings due to fire, theft, or natural disaster; travel costs related to death or illness in the immediate family. The number of students who can be served by the Student Emergency Fund is subject to the availability of funds, which makes this fundraising effort critical.
Please consider helping us with a product or service donation from your business. All donations are greatly appreciated. A donation form for the silent auction items is attached. Simply fill it out, then call or email us, and we’ll handle everything. Your gift will be received Lake Forest College, an Illinois non-profit and a 501(c) (3) tax exempt organization. A receipt will be sent from the College.
We hope you are willing to help us support this important cause with your generous donations. You can mail items to the address below, or we are happy to personally pick up your donation. Please call or e-mail us, and we’ll make those arrangements. If you have any questions, please contact me at 847-735-6030. Thank you in advance for your donation and your support.
