Support the Spring Benefit Auction to Raise Funds for AIS
By Jay Denslow, Special Events Manager
Atlanta International School’s Spring Benefit on Saturday, April 12 at AIS is an annual black-tie gala organized by the Development Office and headed by parent volunteers. Funds are raised at the Spring Benefit through a live and silent auction. All auction items are donated by families and friends of AIS.
Donations are needed!
World-class auction items represent the diversity at AIS, and the auction is known for its cultural items and International vacations, thanks to the generosity of AIS families.
If you are planning on donating an item to the 2008 Spring Benefit: Passport to Italy, now is the time to do so! To ensure your item is featured in the auction catalog, auction donor forms are due at the Development Office by Monday, March 14. Here are some of the items that have already been donated.
