welcome

Head-Royce is such a special school.
The teachers are amazing. The families are supportive. And the kids? They come
out awfully impressive, don’t they?
We are honored to chair the auction together this year. This event is fun with a
purpose:
• to raise money for the continued development of our dedicated faculty; and
• to raise funds for scholarships that are vitally important to the diversity of our
school.
We also know that the auction is a fun way for all of us to connect with other
Head-Royce parents over great food, entertainment and conversation, all in
support of our school. Over the years, this auction event has raised over $1.1
million. Let’s make this another successful year!
Please browse through all of the items, bid high and bid often; and as you do so,
note the names of those generous businesses that have stepped up to support
our school. They deserve our support in return.
Pulling together this auction truly takes a village. We appreciate all of the
volunteers who have imagined and solicited new interesting donations, slaved
over beautiful class projects that will be cherished keepsakes, helped with
auction operations on the day of the event and so much more. So, thank you to
all of the volunteers, donors and underwriters for your generous support – this
festive community party could not have happened without you!

Your Auction Co-Chairs,

Jackie Dharmapalan (Mother of
Rachel, ‘20 and Natalie, ‘22)
Julie Kim-Beal (Mother of Ethan, ‘22)
Eva Lum Camp (Mother of Lowell, ’17,
Lee, ’19 and Chelsea, ‘22)
