DURHAM DISTRICT SCHOOL BOARD
Make Tomorrow Brighter Auction Raises an Incredible $69,435!

April 7, 2025

The Ignite Durham Learning Foundation is thrilled to announce the record-breaking success of this year's Make Tomorrow Brighter Auction! Thanks to the overwhelming generosity and enthusiasm of our community, we raised an astonishing $69,435 nearly doubling last year's total of $40,000.

This extraordinary achievement would not have been possible without the incredible support of our sponsors, donors, and auction participants. With over 850 remarkable items up for bid, our community came together to demonstrate just how much we can accomplish when we rally behind a shared cause.

"The outpouring of support from our donors, auction participants, and the entire Durham community has been truly inspiring," said Stacey Lepine-Fisher, Executive Director of Ignite Durham Learning Foundation. "Your generosity makes a real difference; helping us remove financial barriers and provide essential support for students and families. Thank you for being part of this incredible impact."

From exclusive experiences to sought-after items and unique local offerings, this year's auction showcased the incredible spirit and generosity of our community. Every donation and bid played a role in ensuring Durham students have the resources they need to thrive academically and personally.

A huge thank you to everyone who participated, donated, and supported this year's auction. Your contributions are helping to create brighter futures for Durham's children and youth. We can't wait to see what we can achieve together next year!
