Anderson Auction

Anderson Auction – the biggest, most exciting night of the year can’t happen without you!

We Need Auction Chairs OR this beloved EVENT WILL NOT BE HELD this year! 

Find a friend, raise a brave hand, inspire the community, and help keep the tradition and the promise to our 520+ amazing Anderson students.

The annual Anderson Auction is our second largest fundraiser of the year raising over 20% of our revenue budget and bringing families together in a fun and meaningful way.

There are two open Auction Chair positions – you won’t be working alone or starting from scratch! You’ll be supported by an Auction Committee, plenty of past materials and guidance, and a full team of PTA volunteers. This is a great opportunity to bring your energy and ideas, have fun and make a real impact to our community.

If you’re interested or want to learn more, please reach out to presidents@andersonpta.org

Let’s make the 2026 Auction unforgettable—together!

Thank you to the families who have already donated $70,000 toward our goal of $500,000 – you helped us get this school year off to a dragon roaring good start!!

We hope you received our flyer in your student’s backpack, and we have linked to the digital copy HERE.  Read it to learn more about how the Anderson PTA raises funds, and understand how critical the role of Direct Appeal is in bridging the gap between what the DOE provides and what the robust Anderson experience looks like across K-8. We hope all families will participate, regardless of donation size.
