1 Give your hands to serve and your hearts to love. -St. Teresa of Calcutta Dear Friend of Eastside Catholic School, Every day, during morning announcements we say, Remember to take care of each other because community support is a solemn promise we strive to live by. But as much as we work to take care of each other, tuition alone doesn t support all the programs and opportunities we want each student to receive. That s why we reach out to the community each year, and ask for their support through the STARS Gala Auction. The 34th Annual STARS Gala Auction will be held on March 23, 2019 at the Hyatt Regency Bellevue with an anticipated 550+ guests. As a sponsor, you can help provide a life-changing education to nearly 900 students in grades Today we ask you to be part of our mission to take care of each other through our auction sponsorship and advertisement program. The Eastside Catholic parent and alumni community includes a wide range of business decision-makers, from Fortune 50 corporate executives to owners of local small business, with close to 300 in positions ranging from Director to Vice President and over 75 at the CEO/President level. Sponsorship reaches this community and supports the values of caring and compassion we hold so dear. Eastside Catholic School receives no funding from state and local taxes and is a non-profit charitable organization, so many sponsorship types may be tax deductible. To learn more about sponsorship opportunities today, or to receive additional information, please visit eastsidecatholic.org/auction, or review the sponsor and advertisement benefits information in the accompanying packet. Please note the new benefits added this year. In addition, Director of Special Events Mayten Gross can be reached at or mgross@eastsidecatholic.org for a personal conversation. Thank you for your investment in the next generation of leaders. Respectfully, Mayten Gross, Director of Special Events Mitch and Carrie Parrish, Auction Co-Chairs th Avenue S.E., Sammamish, WA Fax: eastsidecatholic.org Tax ID #
