St. Luke’s School 2014 Spring Benefit Thursday, May 1, 2014 Auction Catalogue Dear St. Luke’s School Parents, Faculty, and Friends, The St. Luke’s School Spring Benefit, long one of our most enjoyable fund-raising events, has also become a wonderful friend-raising event. This benefit, in fact, arises from a bounty of good will. First and foremost, we are deeply grateful for the leadership provided by Sudie Anning, Jennifer Anikst and Christi Wood, who have corralled volunteers and marshaled forces to make tonight possible. In fact, our entire community - faculty, parents, volunteers, donors and underwriters rallied to turn an auction into a celebratory event in support of the children we all serve. Monies raised through the Benefit will again support financial aid for families in need of support, enrichment programs for children, and professional development opportunities for our faculty. It is a gift to be part of a community that works so tirelessly and gives so generously to these programs. Thank you so much for being here. Let us celebrate and enjoy! Sincerely, Bart Baldwin 2 St. Luke’s School Spring Benefit 2014 ... Acknowledgements This evening is supported, in part, by the generosity of our underwriters, benefactors and sponsors.
