Forest Ridge Auction Gala
We are so excited to welcome back to Forest Ridge Auction Gala, which brings together our community while raising money for this year's Fund-a-Need.
Bellevue Club | March 14, 2025 | 5:30 p.m.
Forest Ridge cordially invites you to our 2026 Auction Gala on March 14, 2026, hosted at the Bellevue Club.
This year, we’ll be transported to the sun-drenched Italian coast, where friendship, community, and generosity come together in celebration. Picture an evening filled with golden light, lively conversation, and the warmth of our Forest Ridge spirit. Enjoy an aperitivo-inspired cocktail reception, a beautifully curated dinner, and the excitement of our live auction and paddle raise, all in support of our students and programs.
Join fellow parents, alumni, faculty, and friends for a night that captures the joy of La Dolce Vita—a celebration of connection, purpose, and the sweetness of life at Forest Ridge.
Fund-A-Need: Scholarships
At Forest Ridge, every student’s journey begins with possibility. Our mission calls us to educate young women who are curious, courageous, and ready to lead lives of purpose. Scholarships make this possible.
When families choose Forest Ridge, they are joining a community that believes in each girl’s potential to make an impact in her classroom, her community, and the wider world. Scholarships open our doors to remarkable students whose talents, perspectives, and energy enrich the experience for everyone.
Your generosity through this year’s Fund-a-Need ensures that a Forest Ridge education is not limited by circumstance but defined by promise. Each gift, no matter the size, helps provide opportunities for students to learn, grow, and discover who they are meant to become.
When you raise your paddle, you are investing in girls who will go on to shape their world with compassion and confidence. You are strengthening the future of Forest Ridge and helping us uphold one of our most cherished values—that access to an exceptional education should always be guided by mission, not means.
Together, we can continue to open doors, expand opportunities, and make La Dolce Vita, the sweet life of community, learning, and purpose, possible for every girl who belongs here.
