Newburyport Education Foundation--Lighthouse Auction, November 12!

Mark your calendars: This year’s Lighthouse Auction will be held on Saturday, November 12th!
The mission of the NEF is to generate financial resources to enhance the quality of public education. The Lighthouse Auction is an important fundraiser and an opportunity for you to make a difference in our schools. 
According to the NEF, the 2015 auction was a huge success: "With the help of more than one hundred volunteers and hundreds of donors and sponsors, the 2015 Auction exceeded our goal of raising 100,000!" The NEF has many new initiatives and the auction directly supports their mission to enhance the quality of education for our Newburyport students. To learn more about the NEF or the auction, visit their web site: www.newburyportef.org
The auction items are a combination of donated and created items that come from Newburyport businesses, families, and classrooms. This week your child will be coming home with a donation envelope. You can also help by volunteering to help a classroom create a gift or donating an auction item yourself. For more information email: info@NewburyportEF.org
