SI M PLY PUT, THE Y SH INE .

We envision a world where every child may learn and the Marburn Academy Gala offers an opportunity to lean in to this vision with laser-focused intentionality. It’s a glowing example of what can happen when a group of passionate people come together to help open doors that otherwise might be closed for families needing specific educational services.

Our format may have changed, but the needs remain the same.

We invite you to stand with Marburn and other supporters who have been with us since the beginning. Please join us as we showcase the wins, big and small, and build a community of support for a School that takes pride in unleashing every child’s potential.
