Back to the 80s! 
The 2019 Annual Benefit Auction

The Community Cocktail Reception is a community event fundraiser that precedes the Live Auction Dinner. Happening April 6, starting at 5:00 pm on the Hillsborough campus, the Community Cocktail Reception will feature student performances and a silent auction. 

The Online Auction gives the Nueva community a chance to bid on hundreds of items over a two-week period. It includes everything from $20 gift cards to very high-end experiences. Every year, when the site goes live, the community logs in to try and scoop up highly coveted events. It also gives you a chance to sit down with your kids and have them browse community events just for their age group! For 2019, the Online Auction will launch on March 25 at 6:00 pm. It will end April 4 at 9:00 pm. 

The Silent Auction takes place during the Community Cocktail Party. Tickets will be available for $25.00 per person. There will be a variety of items that will not be available elsewhere, from wine to community events. Bid high and bid often. Keep an eye out as you'll likely get outbid, and will need to increase your bid to stay on top. At the end of the night, the highest listed bidder wins the item. For 2019, it starts at 5:00 pm and closes at 6:30.  

This portion of the program immediately follows the Community Cocktail Party. Tickets will be available for $175 per person. This event includes a 3-course dinner with wine, and dancing to follow. There will be special auction items ranging from community dinners and parties to class gifts. The Live Auction Dinner will take place from 7:00 to 10:00 pm.

Online Premier is a category of items that have strong interest from bidders. It may be because of uniqueness or limited supply, or the item may have been popular in previous auctions. We recommend checking out Online Premier items thoroughly. When you bid, be prepared for competition!

The evening's theme is "Back to the 80s." Let your creativity run free! Costumes are not necessary. Cocktail and casual attire are both welcome. 

Yes! Arrange for a personal shopper to bid on your behalf at the lowest possible price (up to your maximum bid). You can reach out to the advancement team for a Phantom/Absentee Bidder Form to fill out and return by noon on Friday, April 5, 2019. The Advancement Office will contact you after the auction to inform you if you were a successful bidder, and to arrange for payment and pick-up.
