From the OIEF Board
For the past 7 years, the Orcas Island Education Foundation has held its annual Food for Thought fundraiser in November. The OIEF Board is pleased to announce that this year, you won’t be receiving an invitation. That’s right, no great food, no amazing art, no exciting auction – until May 2011!
We are moving the Food for Thought Benefit to spring! We’ll be sending you more information, but we hope you will hold open Thursday, May 19th to come to the biggest fundraiser for our public schools. And we promise – the night will be better than ever.
For those of you who look forward to the November event, the Board has posted recipes from our personal cookbooks so you can have your own Food for Thought dinner at home. For the recipes go to: https://oief.org/events.html.
Hopefully, when you make a dish with your family, it will remind you of OIEF and all the wonderful things it helps to fund at our public schools. And, just in case you feel so compelled, you can always send a donation at OIEF, P.O. Box 782, Eastsound, WA 98245. While we hope you can wait until spring for our Event, the needs of our schools continue.
Thank you for supporting the Orcas Island Education Foundation and we will see you next May 19th!
