Edu-Futuro 26th Anniversary Gala
The Futuro Is Now!
Thank you to all our sponsors. We have so many fantastic auction items this year! Happy Bidding!
How can I prepare for the auction?
All of the silent auction bidding will be done online, which means even during the gala on Friday March 22, 2024, you’ll be bidding straight from your phone. We’ll also have all tangible items on display for you to view in person. To ensure you are successful in your bidding at the event, we recommend that you make sure your phone is fully charged (although we’ll have a charging station just in case) and sign into the hotel wi-fi when you arrive to ensure great connectivity. Our online bidding system will notify you if you’ve been “outbid” on an item you’re interested in, so you can still enjoy the gala while the silent auction is underway.
What if I can’t make it to the event? Can I still bid?
YES! Everything is available to bid on virtually—you don’t have to attend the Gala to bid. Because of this, feel free to share the link with friends and family who may be interested in some of our items.
What are the proceeds from the auction used for?
The auction is Edu-Futuro's primary fundraiser and raises money critical to funding our programs and the scholarships our students get to support their first years of college. All of the profit from the auction goes directly back to our students and programs. Your contribution will have an immediate impact.
What is this fee?
All items have a Buyer Premium of 5% which will be applied to your items upon checkout automatically. This fee offsets the expenses Edu-Futuro has taken on to host the Gala and Silent Auction. This ensures more of your contribution goes directly to support Edu-Futuro's mission. You will only be charged upon checkout.
