Faison School Gala

The Faison School Gala was established in 2002 to help raise the much needed funding to carry out The Faison School’s mission of service, training and research. We now know that according to the Center for Diseases Control (CDC) 1 in 91 children are affected with some form of autism. There is an overwhelming need for the children in Central Virginia and many cannot attend without financial support. Autism is not the life sentence it was once thought to be. We are making a difference. Please help us continue to make this a reality for the children of Virginia.

This year the gala will be held on March 26, 2010. The evening is one of the premier art events in Richmond. In 2009 there were 400 guests and $300,000 was raised for the school and its programs. This year will be a special night featuring a live auction of art and amazing trips. The silent auction includes local dining, golf, jewelry and much more.

In addition, we will have a special performance by the famous, Capitol Steps!

There are many ways to support the school through sponsorship of the event and we welcome additional ideas. Please know your participation will elevate this important event to an even more successful level and is truly appreciated.
