Donate to Celebrate Custodians & Counselors

Last week, the Hospitality Team organized a luncheon to honor our hardworking counselors. Next week, we are planning to celebrate our dedicated custodians and building engineers. We would like to request your help in thanking them by signing up through the SignUp Genius link below to donate food and drinks. In case you don't want to shop, we have got you covered. You can contribute through Venmo @GCMPTSA and write "Hospitality" in the comments. Your contribution will enable us to show our appreciation to our counselors and custodians. Thank you for your support!

BUILDING COMMUNITY:

Why is the auction so important? It raises necessary funds to keep ANGC ticket prices low so that ALL SENIORS are able to attend this amazing and safe celebration with their classmates. The event is sponsored by the PTSA and is typically attended by 75% of the senior class.

Please donate an item (or two or three!) from your business and/or family (or perhaps a holiday gift that wasn't on our list!) for ANGC’s biggest fundraiser.

Donate Auction Items Need some other ideas?? We will gladly accept sports/event tickets, memorabilia, a bottle of your favorite wine, art, jewelry, decorative items, themed gift baskets, gift cards of any sort (McDonald's Starbucks, Chipotle, etc.), experiences, services like individual or group lessons, camps, practical help like painting, handyman, landscaping…the sky’s the limit!

We could also use some help asking local businesses for donations. Contact Valerie Sayd if interested.

As always, thank you for your support!
