Broadview-Thomson is gearing up for its annual auction.

Please support you Seattle Broadview neighborhood school.

Broadview-Thomson K-8 is gearing up for its annual auction – the school’s biggest fundraiser – and is seeking community support.  We kindly request donations of new items large or small to auction off.

Examples of items that bring in much needed money include restaurant and services gift cards, jewelry, CDs or DVDs, art and weekend getaways.  If you run your own small business or if you represent an established company, this is an opportunity to show off your products

or services to people right here in the local community.   As an

individual you might consider using your special skills like beading or carpentry to create a unique auction item.  All donor names (whether business or individual) will be recognized in the auction display and in our auction catalog. Gold Star contributors (donations of $250 or more) will also get special recognition on our web site.

 LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL is this year’s auction theme.  The event takes place May 21 at Bitter Lake Community Center.  With a New Orleans flair this night of fun and fundraising will include food and music inspiring you to laissez les bon temps (let the good times roll)!

Broadview-Thomson’s auctions host 200 or more guests and raise approximately $45,000 each year. Benefiting all students, the money raised allows our PTA to fund a wide variety of programs such as arts education, technology improvements, playground supervision, and field trips.

Thank you for considering a contribution to Broadview’s auction.  We hope to have all donations secured by May 15.  See the school’s PTA website (http://broadviewthomsonpta.com/uploads/Broadview_PTA_fundraising_letter.pdf)
