Let's go all in for Portledge School!
Dear Portledge Community,
 
The Raising the Stakes Gala was a tremendous success! Thank you for making this year’s celebration such a joyful and memorable evening. The vibrant energy in the room and the spirit of generosity throughout the night truly reflected the very best of the Portledge community.
 
From the lively games and beautiful setting at The Garden City Hotel to the spirited participation in our online auction, the evening was filled with excitement, connection, and Panther pride.
 
Thanks to the innovative leadership of Gala Chair Mona Sanveren, who helped reimagine this beloved tradition with new and engaging experiences, we were able to celebrate the Portledge legacy while generating over $450,000 in support of the Portledge mission.
 
We are still waiting on the professional photos from the photographer, but in the meantime, click here to view a few snapshots we received from the evening.
 
You can also view the Digital Journal here, which highlights the incredible generosity of our sponsors, families, and supporters who made this event possible.
 
We are deeply grateful to everyone who contributed their time, energy, and generosity to make the evening such a resounding success. Thank you for being part of this extraordinary community.
 
With gratitude,
Tara Askeland & Rachel Chanenchuk
