Gateway Academy
Auction - A Smashing Success
The Gateway Academy is a 501(c)3 high school committed to helping special
needs students maximize their potential through quality education.
Thanks in part to the generous support of the
Endowment Board and donations from individual FCC members, the first Gateway
Academy fund-raising gala was a smashing success. About 200 parents, staff,
family, and friends got together February 23, 2008, and raised $30,000 to
support scholarships and professional development.
The Endowment Board supplied a $2,500 grant to underwrite catering and
rentals. Individual FCC members gave donations to be auctioned as part of
the festivities. No other organizations or individuals, beyond the
immediate families of children attending the school, provided support.
Again, FCC showed its genuine, openhearted commitment to quality education
for all students.
