On Friday, April 12, Eastern Christian School hosted its largest ever Auction Gala at the Westmount Country Club. Thanks to the generous contributions and active participation of our entire EC community, the evening was a resounding success, exceeding expectations in every way.

Previous Auction Gala records were broken by the end of the night after EC welcomed 420 attendees and received more than $358,000 towards enriching the experience and education of our 954 students, as well as funding scholarships. 

The new Auction Gala format of an extended cocktail reception in lieu of a formal sit-down dinner went over well with guests as the food was plentiful and delicious. Games were both familiar and refreshed and there were even more silent and live auction items to bid on than last year. 

Most exciting of all was this year’s Fuel-the-Fund call for student scholarships that brought on a frenzy of fast and furious donations resulting in an astonishing $112,945 raised for scholarship funding within minutes. 

See the video that helped make this happen and join the success of the evening by supporting Christian education at EC by donating to scholarships on our website.

Sincere and heartfelt thanks to all those who prayed, donated, sponsored, volunteered, and attended the 2024 Auction Gala. Your generosity, dedication, and commitment to EC and its mission were truly inspiring, and we are incredibly grateful to the entire Eastern Christian community. Thank you!
