Auction FAQ

This year's auction theme is a tropical gala—thus, TropiGala! You're invited to join us virtually on Saturday, May 22, 2021. The program will begin at 8 PM, and we anticipate that it will last 1.5 hours. We encourage you to get in the spirit and wear tropical attire on screen. 

We love our students, but this event is for adults only! 

To join us for TropiGala, there are only two things you need to do: 

1. Register online for your link to join. This is where you can purchase a TropiGala event box, too!
2. Make sure you have an electronic device with internet on the evening of the auction.

We prefer for families to pick up their TropiGala event boxes from Green Acres. However, we are able to consider deliveries on a case-by-case basis if you live locally and are unable to pick yours up from campus. If this applies to you, please reach out to Talia.

We ask that you please make your TropiGala event box purchase by Monday, May 17.

We're glad you asked! The annual auction serves as our single biggest fundraising event of the year. Proceeds from this year's auction will help us to increase access to Green Acres through financial aid and to enhance the Green Acres experience for our children by making upgrades to the outdoor learning spaces.

There are lots of ways to help make the auction a success, and we're grateful for any support you can provide! Some ways you can help include:

• Join our auction committee.
• Donate an item or gift certificate to the auction.
• Purchase a catalog greeting on behalf of a Green Acres student or to honor a Green Acres teacher.
• Place a catalog ad for your business or approach local businesses about the opportunity to advertise in our catalog. 

If you have any questions about supporting the auction, email Annie or Talia.
