Mark your calendars, the countdown to Los Ninos and Les Enfants Mardi Gras Soiree and Fundraiser is Sunday, March 10 at Vios Restaurant (903 19th Ave E, Seattle) 4.30pm to 7.00pm. Childcare will be provided at school.

The Annual Auction is one of the key events whereby the community comes together to celebrate all that makes Los Ninos and Les Enfants shine in a fun-filled environment. Why does a private pre-school have fundraiser? Each year we offer financial aid to families who could not otherwise afford the fantastic school we have created. These families are essential to our diverse loving community. Every spring we come together to gather items for bidding. Without your involvement this crazy fun event cannot take place! We need your help!

This event is only as unique and interesting as the items that are donated. Procurement forms are available by the front door. Please grab a few and get creative! Procured items can be dropped off to the school in the bin by the front door. Some ideas to get you started include

• All things food (restaurant, gift certificate, dessert, potluck)
• Destination trip (hotels, family homes/cabin, golf)
• Events (including class projects and teacher experiences for the students)
• Services (i.e. handyman help, landscape, architecture, arborists)
• Children’s Camps and classes (art, theater, sports, cooking…)
• Other (wine, books, bouquets, personal assist +all physical items)
