The silent auction of Millarville Community School's Spring Gala held on April 7th was, indeed, a wonderful community event and a spectacular fundraising success!
Thanks to the many kind participants in this event and, of course, the young entrepreneurs of our school, their families and school staff, close to $8,000 was raised. Over $5,000 of that resulted from the silent auction.
The funds raised through this event are earmarked for special guests and exciting field trips that will enhance our Fine Arts Program (drama, arts and music) for all students. Also, recognizing our good fortune at a time when others are in desperate need, Millarville School, as a community, chose to donate 10% of the proceeds to the Red Cross for Japan Relief.
