About Elmwood Franklin's Auction Fundraiser

As Elmwood Franklin’s showcase fundraising event, the Auction relies upon the assistance of more than 50 parent and guardian volunteers and 50 faculty and staff volunteers along with the generosity of 400+ businesses and individuals to raise more than $200,000 in support of academic, enrichment, and character education programs for our students.
  • Work with a fantastic group of imaginative people as an Auction volunteer (there are many different roles available),
  • bid on and win a variety of fabulous items, such as home accessories, apparel, restaurant gift certificates, children’s items, original artwork, sporting events, vacation getaways, and one-of-a-kind packages,
  • eat, drink and be merry in the good company of fellow Elmwood Franklinites,
  • and support the students and programs of Elmwood Franklin School in the process!
