Dear Fenwick Friends:

Fenwick High School distributes nearly $3 million in tuition assistance annually. Some of this revenue comes from special events and their respective auctions, which bring in hundreds of thousands of dollars. The success of these auctions is a direct result of the generosity of donors such as yourselves in the form of donated items, including vacations, sports memorabilia, event tickets and unique experiences.


We are reaching out to you for ideas and inspiration as we plan for this year's events. What type of items or experiences would you, as a bidder, find exciting? Furthermore, can you help us procure such items to offer in our auctions that raise funds to help our students? 
As a donor of these gifts-in-kind, you will be recognized in event communication pieces, at the events and on our website.
Auction Items and Experience Ideas
  • Vacation homes or access to exclusive destinations and exotic locales
  • Tickets or access to major sporting events such as the Masters, Super Bowl, World Series, Stanley Cup, etc.
  • Experiences like private chefs and wine tastings
  • Airline miles and hotel points
  • Access to exclusive golf courses and country clubs
  • Exclusive entertainment access or tickets to theatrical events such as the opera, concerts, plays, etc.
  • Luxury items such as high-end electronics, jewelry and automobiles, etc.
  • Tickets to local team games and events: Bulls, Bears, Cubs, White Sox, etc.
  • Autographed sports memorabilia, such as photos, jerseys, and balls
  • Gift cards to restaurants, movie theaters, spa packages, etc.
If you are able and willing to donate auction items like those mentioned above in an effort to further the Mission of Fenwick High School, please contact Director of Alumni Relations & Special Events Marilyn Nicodemo ’98 at mnicodemo@fenwickfriars.com or 708-948-0307.
