Hawthorne Spring Fundraiser 2024

On March 8, 2024, Hawthorne Scholastic Academy will throw its annual spring fundraiser to celebrate our community, students, and teachers while raising funds to support our wonderful school! Our CPS Magnet School has more than 500 students and a very active parent community who live in Chicago neighborhoods all across the city.

Hawthorne’s annual fundraiser hosts more than 250 parents, teachers, staff and friends of Hawthorne for a night of cocktails, food stations, entertainment, and an auction at Artifact Events in the Ravenswood neighborhood. The PTA is proud to keep this evening free for all parents and friends to attend. We invite you to be a part of our event by making a tax-deductible donation of a product or service to the silent auction. Our goal for Hawthorne’s spring fundraiser is $200,000.

We are so grateful to all our sponsors and donors! We believe that donating to Hawthorne’s spring fundraiser will be tremendous advertising for your business. As a thank you for partnering with us, we will give you special acknowledgement at the event, on the school’s website and social media, and on the event website, where all attendees must go to RSVP to the event and bid on auction items.

The money raised at the event helps our PTA support the school and administration with their critical needs. We cover staff positions to ensure smaller classroom sizes to help with specific instruction around literacy and math. We assist with technology in the classrooms, an Arts Partnership program for each grade, and assist with field trips and sports teams as needed. We try to get as much donated as possible to keep our fundraiser expenses low so all money raised can go back to the school.

The Hawthorne students, teachers and families are the beneficiaries of your generosity, and we are forever grateful for your support.
