Gift Gathering FAQs
1. What is a Gift Gathering Party and what is the gift for?
In order to raise these dollars critical to Nardin's mission and vision, we look to our entire community for donations to support Fortune's silent and live auction. Each year, Nardin organizes gift gathering opportunities where families can donate auction items or monetary donations for this important fundraiser. We need your support!
2. What to expect at a Gift Gathering Party?
They are super relaxed and fun! Enjoy some (adult!) beverages and hors d’oeuvres in a casual atmosphere with fellow parents, alumni, employees, and other friends of Nardin Academy.
3. What would be a good gift to bring?
Our Institutional Advancement team has carefully created gift registries to help you with gift ideas.
In addition to the items listed on our registries, the following items have performed well in past years in our Silent and Live auctions:
-
Anything Buffalo Bills or Buffalo Sabres related
-
Tech gifts (portable chargers, wireless earbuds, bluetooth speakers, anything Bose, etc.)
-
Unique experiences - Memberships to local museums/places, Summer camps, etc.
-
Nardinware items - both adult and kids sizes
-
Baskets and “themed bundles” work great, too!
4. Do I have to bring a gift?
No but a donation of $50 will get you into the party! We accept cash, check, or Venmo at the door. We can’t wait to see you there!
