We are pleased to announce that the 2019 Epstein Celebration will take place on Sunday April 7, 2019. Last year’s Celebration was immensely successful; the auction raised over $75,000. We strive to surpass that number this year, and with your generous support we know we can achieve our goal. The Epstein School is a large non-profit school located in Sandy Springs, Georgia and nurtures children from 18 months through 8^th grade. We are 100% student centered and, to that end, all funds from this event help us enhance the arts, purchase classroom technology, support the continuing education of our faculty, and make our school exceptional! The Epstein School offers integrated, dual-language learning that cultivates lifelong skills, inspires Jewish identity, and nurtures curiosity, critical thinking and creativity.

This year’s Celebration honors an exceptional couple, Robin and Darrin Friedrich. The Friedrichs have been part of the Epstein Community for over 11 years. Robin and Darrin’s children, Bradley (Class of ’17) and Stevee (Class of ’19) both attended Epstein.  Darrin, a partner at Aprio, has served on the Board of Trustees the past 8 years; as Treasurer and then President. He has also served as Chair of Finance Committee and has held many other lay leadership positions.  Robin has also been very involved at Epstein. She chaired the Leadership Epstein Program and then developed and chaired Epstein 101, our leadership and mentor training programs. She served on the Board of PTO and held many other lay positions. Both Robin and Darrin also give their time to Temple Sinai and other institutions around Atlanta. Together, they are the consummate role models for their children and others around them.    

Invitations for this event go to over 3,000 households from our community. Our auction is electronic, so all of our constituents can view your donations on their personal devices with your business name. Description boards are on display with every item and your business is also noted. Please join us by donating gift certificates, goods and experiences that would be an exciting addition to this year’s auction.  To participate, please complete the enclosed procurement form and return it to the Epstein School as soon as possible but no later than February 25, 2019.  If you have any questions, please call the Advancement Department at 404-250-5649.
