Bids for Kids Annual Fundraiser

Thank you for being a part of the Preschool's sole fundraiser. Your contribution has helped us raise over $6,000! These funds provide scholarships for families experiencing financial hardship, and also serve as a major source of funding for our special needs program, S.P.R.O.U.T. Last year, the preschool created two rooms for resources and sensory play, where therapists and teachers work with children in small groups or one-on-one.

Thanks again to everyone who contributed, bid, and helped make this auction successful. Please check back next year for the annual fundraiser.

The 2024 Annual Online Auction goes live on Friday, November 8th, and ends on Friday, November 15th, 2024.

What is it?

Bids for Kids is an online auction with 100’s of items that support our Preschool. Browse through our activities and experiences, services, merchandise, food vendors and class baskets to find that perfect Christmas gift or bid on a treat for yourself.

The proceeds collected help provide scholarships for families who are experiencing financial need. It is also a major source of funding for our special needs program S.P.R.O.U.T. This past year we have been able to create 2 rooms for resources and sensory play, where therapists and teachers are able to come in and work with children in small groups or one on one.

When is it?

The auction will go live at 12.01am on Friday, November 1st and will close at 9pm on Friday November 8th 2024. That’s a whole week to bid on an item you want for the holiday’s! Worried that you won’t be there for that final bid? Never fear, you can place bid increments and a maximum bid for the system to bid for you.
