An Evening of Feasting, Fanfare & Fundraising
to support Financial Aid at Burke
on Saturday, April 26, 2025

The Burke Auction is the biggest social and fundraising event of the school year, and its success depends upon the involvement and generosity of many community members volunteers coming in support of Financial Aid.  One hundred percent of Auction proceeds support Burke's Financial Aid program. Burke provides assistance to more than 30% of our families, allowing us to maintain the economic diversity that makes Burke a special place for all of our students.
