2020 AEFI Benefit is CANCELED
It is with regret, but no surprise, that we have decided to cancel the AEFI Benefit scheduled for March 27th due to the concerns surrounding COVID-19. This is the most prudent step for the benefit of our community's health and well being. We are still exploring other possibilities for the future and will let you know as soon as any further decisions have been made. Thank you for your understanding and continued support of the AEFI.
The AEFI would like to thank all Benefit ticket holders for their suport of the AEFI. Unfortunately, it is with great regret that we are unable to gather together for the AEFI Benefit this year. In light of the current Coronavirus pandemic we must put the health and well-being of our community first and foremost. We will miss seeing you all in person around the casino tables!
Unfortunately, as our primary source of funding, the cancellation of this year's Benefit will severely hinder our ability to fund teacher grants for innovative and challenging educational programs during the 2020/2021 school year. To help offset this loss, you can elect to donate your purchased tickets to the AEFI in support of the Ashland public schools. Please send an email to gala.aefi@gmail.com by April 12, 2020 if you would like to convert your tickets to a tax-deductible donation - our deepest thanks for your generosity! If we do not hear from you regarding your purchase by April 12th we will begin the refund process.
In addition, the volunteers of the AEFI will still hold the auction portion of the Benefit online through Bidding for Good. While we may not be able to come together in person this year, we can still complete our mission by joining together and bidding online on the many items that were to be showcased at our live Benefit event. Please be on the lookout for the online auction date coming soon!
Thank you once again for your continued support and generosity!
To make your tax deductible contribution, click the Donate button below OR mail directly to AEFI, PO Box 71, Ashland MA 01721 and please note Neighborhood Campaign on the check. Please make your donation to this campaign by January 31, 2020.
