2023 South Whidbey Schools Foundation Gala

This year's theme is Changing It Up and that's what we're doing with this annual fundraising event!

Picture a fabulous evening soiree... with friends gathered around firepits on the patio listening to the South Whidbey High School jazz band combo, or inside a lovely wooden structure where a bountiful selection of delicious hors-d'oeuvres are spread throughout.

Seabiscuit Bakery (formerly the Mukilteo Café) has fast become a favorite Island destination, with accolades for their delicious food. At the Gala, you'll choose from a variety of hors-d'oeuvres such as salmon sliders on a homemade bun; BBQ pulled-pork sliders; endive leaves with feta, pomegranate, balsamic and persimmon; Goegeres pastry puffs; a bountiful charcuterie and cheese board; crudités; assorted crostini and spreads; seasonal fruits; beer, wine and alcohol-free drinks; Mukilteo Coffee Roasters coffee; and yummy desserts.

Sit indoors or outside around tabletop firepits. View videos of grants funded last year and talk with educators and principals, and meet the new school volunteer coordinator, funded in part by the Foundation.

At the end of the evening you'll be able to 'raise your paddle' to support your educational areas of interest.

Purchase your tickets now as they are limited to the first 100 people.
