"Out of This World" Lakeshore Spring Auction

Before coronavirus hit, we had planned an interGALActic, extraterrestrial, space-themed live event. The goal for our usual in-person auctions is $30,000. With this year's last minute switch, we would be thrilled to raise $20,000 which is about 12% of our annual expenses. We're going from "out of this world" to "into your living room," but we still hope to reach for the stars to benefit our students.

Our school is a very diverse K-5 public school in San Francisco serving about 500 students. The programs we support are critical to enriching the educational experience of our community.

Proceeds go toward enrichment programs, community-building events, project grants (including STEM) for teachers and staff, and trips and supplies. We are proud to support a holistic approach to education through our enrichment programs such as Art, Motor Perception, Science in the Garden, Afro-Latin Drumming, Yoga, and Movement, which are not covered by San Francisco Unified School District. Over 80% of what we spend goes back to students and families, and the rest goes toward administration; no one is paid on the PTA.

***IMPORTANT TIPS***
Please check out all the items to support our school! There are 10 featured items below but many more if you use the category picker at the top of the page!

Any time you see "#1, #2" etc. on an item's title, it means there's more! You can use the search bar to find all the others. For instance, there are five batches of Disney tickets; enter "Disneyland" in the search to see the other four.

Finally, please review all restrictions and rules on shipping and pickup before you bid. We are run by a handful of volunteers, many working full-time with kids in our homes, under COVID-19 conditions, and it isn't feasible to make exceptions for returning items and undoing bids. Thanks for your understanding and support!
