Dear Valued Partner in the Community,

At Rochester Arts & Sciences Academy, a non-profit International Baccalaureate World School, we are committed to fostering the growth of active learners, well-rounded individuals, and engaged citizens of the world. Our community—comprising our families, students, and staff—has much to appreciate, largely thanks to the support from compassionate individuals and local businesses like yours.

To continue our commitment to providing accessible, top-tier education, we're thrilled to invite you to our Spring Gala and Auction on Saturday, May 4th, 2024. This year, we aim to raise $25,000 to directly benefit our students. The funds will go towards scholarships, playground improvements, and creating distinctive and enriching learning experiences for our students.

Your contribution can significantly impact the lives of our students. We welcome donations in any form—be it gift certificates, monetary contributions, or physical items for auction. Past events have thrived on the kind-hearted donations from community-centric organizations and individuals, with an average of $17,000 raised over the past five years, underscoring the vital role your support plays in our event's financial success.

For your convenience, I am more than willing to personally collect your donation. In appreciation, we will provide a tax-deductible receipt for your generous gift. Furthermore, all contributions will be acknowledged in our event program, showcased on individual displays during the event, and featured on our website.

We deeply value your time and consideration and are hopeful for your support in making our Spring Gala and Auction a remarkable success.

Warm regards,

Nicholas Doyle

Principal
