Everyone who joined us for “A Night Out” — meeting and mingling with fellow parents, being entertained by our terrific auctioneer Lonnie Quinn, taking home fabulous items and gift certificates, and supporting our children — was a winner! These four parents, who purchased admissions in advance or raffle tickets, were especially lucky:
Mary Boland-Look – Advance Ticket Purchase Winner (5 hours of FREE test prep with Manhattan Elite Prep)
Alyson Hyde – Winner of 2 tickets to Springsteen on Broadway
Julian Wass – Winner of 2 tickets to Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Parts 1 and 2
Jodi Divak – Live Auction Raffle Winner (she’s going on a South African photographic safari!)
But the biggest winners by far were our children! All told, the event and the online auction raised more than $108,700 (and netted more than $80,000)! Here’s the breakdown:
$17,500+ Admissions (235 tickets purchased to “A Night Out”!)
$16,000+ Live Auction
$15,500+ Silent Auction
$11,000+ Raffles
$2,500+ Cash Donations
$19,500+ Paddle Raiser to contribute to cafeteria renovation by the Alumni Foundation
$25,000+ Online Auction

A big thank you to so many parents who solicited, donated, attended, volunteered, and bid! Together, we surpassed our $100,000 goal for the 2018 Spring Auction and proved just how special the Bronx Science community truly is!
