Spring Benefit 2009 website coming soon!
It’s never too early to begin talking about next year! We are honing in on an African theme for the 2009 Spring Benefit and will begin assembling consultants to ensure as true and accurate a representation of the African culture as possible. If you have a personal connection, knowledge or passion for the African culture we welcome you to join us. To find out more information on how to be a part of the 2009 Spring Benefit Committee please contact the Event Chair, or the AIS Special Events Manager, .
About the Benefit
Each year the Spring Benefit transports guests to a unique destination, and Passport to Italy promises to send guests to a land rich in ancient history and culture. In addition to enjoying the traditions of Italy, guests will partake in dinner, dancing and a live and silent auction.
Tickets for the Benefit will go on sale in February. Select levels of 1984 Club membership include tickets to the Benefit, so joining the 1984 Club is a great way to experience the Benefit and support AIS. You can also support the Benefit by becoming a sponsor and/or donating an auction item. For additional information, contact Jay Denslow, Special Events Manager, at (404) 841-3841 or jdenslow@aischool.org.
The goals of the AIS Spring Benefit are to:
1. Raise money for AIS.
2. Celebrate the people and culture of Italy. Each year, the Benefit transports guests to a different destination and invites them to experience that country's unique food and entertainment. This year the Spring Benefit Committee is committed to representing Italy respectfully and fairly. Guests are invited to dress in attire native to the theme country, wear their own country's national dress or black tie.
3. Educate the AIS community about Italy. Throughout the academic year, AIS will present opportunities to learn more about Italian culture, including: WorldFest, a fashion show, lectures, and more.
4. Make new friends. The Spring Benefit depends on volunteers, and by volunteering for a Benefit committee, parents can meet other parents from all of the different school grades. Volunteers are needed for auction acquisitions, parent projects, set up, and decorations.
