9th Annual Social and Auction Benefit is a Success!
The Oregon City Schools Foundation (OCSF) would like to thank its many sponsors and donors for helping to achieve our greatest event yet. The Auction raised $75,000 to help the students of Oregon City.
Over 200 school supporters joined the foundation in raising funds to ensure the foundation’s mission of providing enhanced opportunities for Oregon City students. Attendees enjoyed a number of new and fun ways to give including a "Wild Card Raffle" whose winner got to choose an Oral Auction item for his $100 ticket. The winner will be spending a week in Mexico, a $1,400 value, congratulations!
Margy Lynch was this year’s Mistress of Ceremonies and was joined by Sheriff Craig Roberts who helped to raise funds specifically for school libraries. Mike Rice and Mike Barrett did a wonderful job once again as event auctioneers. Thank you so much to these individuals for showing their support of schools.
A special thank you to all of our hardworking volunteers, hundreds of hours go into making this event possible and is highly valued and greatly appreciated.
The OCSF is committed to providing enhanced educational opportunities to the students of Oregon City. The focus of technology drove the purchase of over 50 Smart Boards for Oregon City classrooms this school year. The matching grants for technology were in addition to donations to fund items like books, gym equipment, tools and many more requests as well as scholarships.
