Gala 2021: Get a Seat At the Table

SEE FEATURED ITEMS AND FUND-A-NEED BELOW

Gala 21 UPDATE!

We are nearing the $16,000 goal from all donation sources as of 5 p.m. tonight. We met 50% of our Gala 21 goal thanks to your support through multiple avenues. Reaching this goal unleashed the match donation from a family of another two 8-seat tables. THANK YOU EVERYONE!

Guess what? You still have a short time to bid on your favorite items and donate to “Get a Seat At the Table.” Keep your bids and donations coming to help us take that one last leap toward our goal!

At 8 p.m., the auction will be closed and winners will be notified by 32auctions through email.

Thank you, again, for your support! We will send a follow-up email early next week, with a summary of donation totals. Remember, winners can pick up their goodies from the UMA on Wednesday, May 26th and Thursday, May 27th from 7:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. or make other arrangements through Amy Erickson 651.285.5586 or Amy Elverum 612.730.2694.

The goal is to raise $22,222 to furnish our cafeteria space on the third level of our school.

Reminder: Gala funds will specifically support the purchase of:
• 10 - 8 seat tables ($1400+ each)
• 8 - 4 seat tables ($700+ each)
• Supplies (remaining)

*If you prefer to donate directly to UMA (which will avoid transactional fees to our organization), see the options below. Additionally, these donation methods will not be reflected in the goal meter at the left, but will be shared in totals communicated through UMA's Gala webpage, facebook and emails.
