We will be holding an Auction of Promises as part of Giving Day 2022, LEH’s biggest bursary fundraising event of the year, on Thursday 16 June, and we need your support please.
Thanks to generous donations to our Bursary Fund, we currently have 67 brilliant pupils who receive financial support to make their places at LEH possible. On our first ever Giving Day in 2021, we raised enough to fund a new Sixth Form bursary place. This year, we’re hoping to bring our entire LEH community together to help us raise even more.
Last year, many of you generously donated your time, talents, and expertise as prizes for our Auction of Promises. This helped us raise a huge amount of money, and we’d be very grateful if you would be kind enough to do the same this year.
Your ‘promise’ doesn't have to be anything grand (though if it is, we’ll gladly accept it!); just something that our LEH community might enjoy bidding for. To inspire you, here’s a flavour of the type of promises that helped us raise funds last year:
Whatever your talent or your passion, we’d be very grateful for your support. If you can offer a ‘promise’ that we can auction, please get in touch to let us know as soon as possible. Promises do not need to be delivered on Giving Day itself, but this is when the bidding will take place. Contact development@lehs.org.uk to find out more or donate prize.
To beat the rush and to make a donation to Giving Day ahead of time, please visit lehgivingday.com.
We are very grateful indeed for all your kind support.
