On behalf of Friends of Amundsen, we are pleased to announce the annual Raise the Sails fundraiser at DANK Haus on Saturday, March 12, 2022. Our largest fundraising event of the year, attended by nearly 300 guests, directly benefits students of Amundsen High School. 

Amundsen provides students with a rigorous, authentic, and culturally rich high school experience. Our school educates more than 1,400 students in a neighborhood program, as well as an International Baccalaureate Programme. Amundsen students and graduates are Accountable, Honorable, and Scholarly. As our public schools continue to face serious budget challenges, our children experience those shortfalls firsthand. With your generosity and support, together, we are able to build on our school’s foundation, accomplishments, and progress. But, more importantly, we can ensure our children continue to thrive, excel and achieve academic success.

All proceeds from our Raise the Sails fundraiser will directly benefit our Amundsen students. Additionally, this event provides a great opportunity to connect Amundsen families, administration, and staff with amazing community members and businesses like you!
