Hello _______,

St. Joseph School and its mission means so much to me because [INSERT PERSONAL STORY HERE].

St. Joseph School has been a beacon of light on Capitol Hill for 113 years and is the largest K-8 Catholic School in the state of Washington. Due to Covid-19 impacts, our annual auction is going virtual. The 45th annual auction will take place this year on Friday, November 13, 2020 and will be different, but will still have the same fun, interactive and creative elements that make St. Joe special. The annual auction is one of our school’s largest fundraising opportunities, last year generating more than $700,000 with much of the proceeds supporting financial aid. I invite you to join me for PNWProud, the St. Joseph School 2020 auction. Registration is free, but we’d still like you to sign up here. Once you register, you will receive emails directing you to visit the website to participate in a variety of bidding opportunities! The online auction opens on Monday, November 9 and the livestream event is on Friday, November 13 with a pre-funk starting at 6:30 p.m.

This year we are asking for support for a Healthy, Safe, and Sustainable school environment. We’ve made significant improvements in updating the school to be prepared when it is deemed safe to return to campus, but there’s more work to be done. Every day our facilities team aims to create the best possible environment for our community to ensure that we are protected and preserved. Our team is taking extraordinary measures to upgrade and institute health and safety measures that will help us open for in-person education as quickly as possible once it is safe to do so. Please consider a Fund-a-Need gift. You can find more information about Fund-a-Need here.

I hope you will join me in this special event to support our community school. For more information about our auction or to make a donation please contact the St. Joseph School Advancement office via email at auction@stjosephsea.org, or phone 206-329-3260 x233.

Kind regards,
