Each year, Thornton Academy’s auction grows in success and is the school’s largest fundraising event, historically raising more than $125,000. Proceeds from the auction provide critical support to TA’s programs, expand academic opportunities, fuel the free breakfast and lunch program, and enhance campus life. Last year, more than 200 businesses and individuals showed their support of our auction through volunteering, making in-kind donations, purchasing program ads, or through event or item sponsorships, and over 300 people came to support the auction that evening.

This year’s auction, themed Derby: Giddy Up For Good will be held on Saturday, May 2nd, 2020 in the Thornton Academy Atrium. Thornton’s auction presents an amazing opportunity to put your business in front of local community members enjoying a fun-filled evening complete with delicious drinks and appetizers, high- spirited bidding, and networking.
