Winter Warm Up
Winter Warm Up Dinner & Auction is our newest event, with a long tenure. Previously known as Oktoberfest for Highline, this fun-filled evening of food and friends benefits basic needs programs offered to students across Highline Public Schools.ย
The event features a huge silent auction, lively live auction, a delicious dinner provided by local restaurants, a raffle, and more. Save the date and bring your friends for this cozy evening in support of the Highline Schools Foundation.
2024 Winter Warm Up Dinner and Auction
Our 2024 Winter Warm Up Dinner & Auction was a big success! Early tallies show we raised over $70,000 to support basic needs programming across Highline Public Schools. We also collected dozens of coats that we’ll distribute ahead of winter break to students in need of cold weather gear, in collaboration with school social workers, counselors, and other Highline staff. Huge thanks to all of our generous guests, helpful volunteers, and incredible Highline speakers — like School Social Worker Krystal Correa, Superintendent Dr. Ivan Duran, and School Board Vice President Joe Van, who helped make this event extra special. Special thanks to all of our sponsors, including Presenting Sponsor Key Bank, as well as Centro Neighborhood Kitchen, Highline Education Association, Your Part Time Controller, Patti Gifford Real Estate, Alaska Airlines for supporting our Lucky Squares Raffle, andย CocinaMX32, who provided a fantastic buffet dinner.
