SPRING AUCTION
green & white auction spring ’21 In Support of Financial Aid and DEI Initiatives
A
fter having the Spring ’20 Auction cancelled due to the pandemic, we were excited to be able to come together virtually for a fantastic evening of bidding and fundraising on April 24th. Prior to the event, we sent gift boxes to all attendees, including insulated wine tumblers and chocolates, in the hopes of raising a glass together. Thanks to fantastic auction software, amateur and professional video footage, and the magic of both live and online bidding, it almost felt like our parents, alumni, alumni parents, and Trustees were all together in person. A special thank-you to students and faculty who participated in adorable videos that really made the evening special. Bill Jacob resumed the role of our live auctioneer, and with all of the wonderful donations and the community-wide support, the night was a huge success. We had spectacular wines for the Wine Grab, amazing trips, student- and staff-created items, and much more. The event netted over $115,000 in support of financial aid and DEI initiatives School-wide. As hoped, the evening ended with a Zoom toast and the Brimmer community energy and goodwill was palpable. We are both humbled and grateful for our community and its generosity in support of our students. ■
