Marian High School thanks Bernie & Phyl’s for donation
Dear Bernie & Phyl’s Furniture Store,
Please accept our thank you for your generous donation to the Marian High School “Best Ticket in Town” Gala Auction. In addition to thanking you we also want you to have this receipt for your taxes. Your donation to Marian was equal to $25.00 worth of items for which you did not receive anything in return.
The auction program of the evening was quite successful. Through the generosity of businesses and people like you, our ‘Best Ticket in Town” evening raised over $80,000 for the benfit of Marian High School and its students. Each year we depend on fundraisers such as our annual gala auction to help finance school needs which are not incorporated into tuition. It is truly the goal of Marian to keep tuition affordable so that it remains available to all families who want a Catholic education for their children. Only through the sucess of functions such as the gala auction is this possible.
Next year we will be again asking you for a donation. I do hope you will be equally as generous. Planning an auction is a significatn undertaking; however, withouth that kindness of businesses and people such as you, it could never take place. We want you to know how much we appreciate your generosity.
On behalf of the Auction Committee and Marian High School community, we wish you a happy, health and prosperous summer. Please feel free to call if you have any questions or concerns.
Yours in Marian,
Dale Gudejko and
Marian High School “Best Ticket in Town” Auction Committee
