Westhill Educational Foundation Gala

The success of the inaugural Westhill Educational Foundation Gala held in October 2024 would not have been possible without the generous support of those within our community, especially our local businesses and organizations. The Foundation is preparing for the 2nd Annual Gala to be held at the Bellevue Country Club on Saturday, October 18th, where we will be honoring: one Westhill alum, one community business, and one grant recipient.

It is through the generous support of our community, that the Westhill Educational Foundation has funded more than 155 grants totaling over $330,000 in the past eleven years!

For example… our students have experienced…

  • Playing improv with professional jazz musicians.
  • Having lunch with an award-winning author at your school.
  • Hatching baby chicks in a classroom and learning about their lifecycle.
  • Exploring our community’s natural and historical centers to extend ELA, science, and social studies learning. Attending live professional theatre performances.
  • Eye-opening opportunities for our students that span the curriculum — from fine arts to science.

This is what we do, and this is why we value your support so much. A comprehensive listing of sponsorship levels is attached. We sincerely hope you will consider partnering with us this year. Please do not hesitate to contact us at [email protected] with any questions.
