The District 88 Foundation extends a heartfelt thank you to everyone who attended, supported and helped coordinate the group’s inaugural Gathering at the Grapevine fundraiser!
The event took place on Sept. 28 at DeVine Wine and Cocktail Bar in Villa Park and was a wonderful afternoon to raise funds for District 88 students. Participants enjoyed drinks, food, live music, a raffle, a silent auction and more.
Below is a recap of the event.
Pictured above (at Willowbrook) are Willowbrook students and staff, who donated their art pieces to the District 88 Foundation's fundraiser. They are (from left to right) senior Joshua Jackson, junior Norah (North) Luedtke, senior Quinn Duszak, junior Josephine Parkinson, junior Rebeca Timothee, senior Peter Kabat and senior Nina Young. They’re pictured with Willowbrook Art Department Head John Epple (far left), who also donated artwork.
Thank you again to everyone who made the first Gathering at the Grapevine fundraiser a success. We look forward to making it even better in the future!
