Ballard Foundation Auction and Golf Classic
Ballard Performing Arts is supporting the 24th Annual Victor Salvino Golf Classic, the Salmon Barbeque Dinner and the Celebrating all Things Ballard Auction.
Phew, that’s a lot, what exactly are these events, and how are they different from other Ballard Performing Arts and BHS fundraisers?
Founded in 1997, the Ballard High School Foundation has raised over $4MM for BHS programs, including athletics and performing arts. It is a separate 503c organization that is made up of alumni and community members dedicated to enriching student experiences at BHS. In August, they plan and host a Golf Classic, an online auction and a delicious Salmon Dinner attended by Seattle community leaders and people from across the country. While allowing us, Ballard Performing Arts, to donate items or participate in events and raise money for our own group.
It’s all the benefits of a large and expensive auction event without any of the expense or volunteer hours. We realize our families are busy and have given so much time and money this year.
But we need to start planning for the next school year, which could include scholarship needs for longer and more expensive trips (we funded $30K in scholarships for the 2023 trips).
