Our goal for this year's auction is $100,000. We were able to raise $75,000 from our Spring 2020 auction, which is amazing given these unprecedented times, and we are so grateful to our community for your continued support. However, this is still a shortfall in funding. Please consider giving, and sharing this donation site with the rest of your community to help us raise critical funds to support music and social and environmental justice education, our deaf and hard of hearing program (a leading program in the City), and other important community events like next year's auction! Visit https://topsk8.seattleschools.org/school_involvement/fundraising to learn more about how your donations are used.

We know this is a challenging time for many in our community and hope that those who can will join us in providing direct financial support to TOPS K-8.
