Friends of Jones Virtual Spring 2020 Benefit

Dear Jones Families,

In light of current health concerns, and out of an abundance of caution and following city and state recommendations, we have made the difficult decision to cancel our Spring Benefit at The Library. Instead, our annual Spring Benefit is now a virtual event. 

As you know, our online auction is underway. We will now add our amazing Live Auction items so everyone has the chance to bid on them from the comfort of their own home! Virtual Live Auction details will follow soon. 

Please check out the fantastic items already open for bidding at the links below:

Additionally, those of you who have attended a previous Spring Benefit know that our Eagle Paddle Raise is a critically important part of our overall fundraising effort. Unfortunately, we won’t be able to hold an in-person Eagle Paddle Raise this year but, through the online auction, everyone can participate and show their support for Jones. 

The price paid for Spring Benefit admission tickets is now fully tax-deductible and we hope you'll consider it a gift to Jones to help cover non-refundable costs. Questions? Prefer a refund? Please email Laura Brauer at laura.brauer@friendsofjones.org or Tracy Portnoy at tracy.portnoy@friendsofjones.org.

We would like to express our utmost gratitude to our sponsors, donors, ticket purchasers, volunteers, administration and staff and the entire Jones community. The loss of this year’s in-person Spring Benefit is a disappointment to all and we remain grateful for your support, understanding and flexibility at this time. 

Let’s make this year’s Virtual Spring Benefit a Success!

Friends of Jones
