Julie Billiart School 60th Anniversary Gala

There is a very notable school in Lyndhurst, Ohio named Julie Billiart School. Julie Billiart nurtures and empowers students with special learning needs. It is a fantastic learning institution that not only touches your heart, but embraces your soul. I am very proud to say that Auction brio has been the exclusive benefit auctioneer for the Annual Benefit.

This year, the Annual Benefit celebrated Julie Billiart's 60th Anniversary. For the first time, the gala was moved out of their gymnasium and held in the historic Shaker Heights Country Club. A silent auction along with a Wine Pull were featured during the cocktail hour which had distinguished chefs from Cleveland serving hot gourmet appetizers to guests.

Guests moved into the banquet room where a few speeches and some notable guests were recognized and thanked. The live auction featured a 2003 LeBron James Rookie Signed Jersey, a luxury apartment in the Dominican Republic, a cooking class for 12 with featured chefs and much more.

Each year the Fund-a-Need is held to raise money to support tuition needs. This year guests gave generously to help those students with financial aid. It was a generous statement!

Mark Schroeder CAI, BAS, CES and Auction brio is thrilled to be a team member of this wonderful school. We have been a long-time benefit auctioneer for them and are excited to continue to help them raise more money for years to come.
