Description

Michigan Avenue School PTO is gearing up for our annual live and silent Spring Auction “Lights, Camera, Auction!” on March, 31, 2023, at 5:30pm in the MAS gymnasium. The auction has become one of the most exciting events at Michigan Avenue School, as well as the PTO’s largest fundraiser. The funds raised will be used to continue to provide instructional support for the school for much needed Reading Interventionists and computer teacher salaries, or teacher/staff appreciation, classroom funding, and to sponsor over 20 annual PTO yearly events. The MAS PTO was recognized by the PTO Today Magazine as an Honorable Mention as the best parent group in the United States in 2015 and 2017 and was awarded Excellence in General Programming in 2016.  

What do we need? And how you can help?

Donations of Items, themed gift baskets, gift certificates, and unique one time experiences for our students or parents!

What do you get out of donating?

All donors and sponsors will be acknowledged in our auction list that will be distributed to students, prior to the auction, and auction attendees. We typically have 800+ community members attend the event and our goal is to raise over $20,000 for Michigan Avenue School.  We utilize articles in the Cleveland Daily Banner, live events with Mix 104.1 radio station, and on-going promotion on our Facebook page, Michigan Avenue School PTO Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram; in addition to our Facebook Event Page. 

Michigan Avenue School PTO is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. We will be happy to provide you with our tax ID number. No goods or services will be provided in exchange for your generous financial donation.

We are truly grateful for individuals, businesses, and corporate sponsors.  Let’s work together to make this the best auction yet and continue to provide great opportunities for our teachers and students. We could not do this event each year without your support.

Sincerely,
