Because of budget constraints, the Oakland Unified School District cannot support many programs that were once basic to every child’s education. Our Parent Faculty Club now must raise more money to maintain or supplement essential programs like music, art, computers, and physical education. We cannot accomplish this without the support of business like yours.

On March 2, 2019 we will hold our 33rd Annual Benefit Auction at the Colombo Club in Oakland, California. This event features silent and live auctions and generates more than 60% of our Parent Faculty Club’s annual operating budget. As we plan for our 2016 Benefit Auction with hopes of record-breaking success, we humbly request your support. We would be grateful to receive any donation you are able to provide.

Please note, every donor is acknowledged on our Benefit Auction website and in our Benefit Auction Catalog. And additional benefits are available through sponsorships and advertising. Detailed information about Thornhill Elementary School and our PFC can be found at www.thornhillschool.org. For more information about the Annual Benefit Auction, or to respond to this request for a donation, please contact me directly at: benefit@thornhillschool.org.

Thank you so much for considering this request. I hope you will join us as we keep our children on the road to a bright future, and I look forward to hearing from you.
