Thank you Community!
We are thrilled to announce that, thanks to your incredible generosity, we raised just over $91,000 for the White River Education Foundation! These funds will go a long way in supporting our students and schools.
To everyone who attended, bid, and supported us—thank you for showing up and believing in this mission. Your presence and enthusiasm were inspiring, and we couldn’t be more grateful!
A special shoutout to our amazing volunteers: May Morgan, Elizabeth Carter, Stephanie Courtney, Shelsea Smith, Matt Scheer, Collette and Bevan Strabeck, Monique Whiddon, and the amazing cashier team. Your hard work behind the scenes made everything possible, and we couldn’t have done it without you!
Thank you all for coming together to make a difference. Here’s to another amazing year ahead for White River!
Stacy & Leoni

When your heart is so full of gratitude, it is impossible to put into words how you feel. I’m in awe of our community, our district and our volunteers. Lots of new this year…new venue, new caterer, Superintendent and Deputy Superintendent, new parents, new volunteers and a slight loss in momentum due to a few years with no auction. We embraced the new, tackled our challenges and had our most successful event yet!
Because of our incredibly talented auctioneer Jeff Fetter, our schools and community, we raised over $85,000 and are still counting! This by far surpassed any previous year of fundraising!
On behalf of the White River Education Foundation and from the bottom of my heart, thank you!
