Support Our Fundraisers

Whether you’re purchasing raffle tickets to a sporting event, attending a Dinner & Theatre Night, or bidding on an auction item, your participation helps support the Morton 201 Foundation’s Pay It Forward Scholarship Fund, which provides scholarships to graduating seniors.

We host three fundraising events each year: two Dinner & Theatre Nights and one online auction. Every ticket purchased, bid placed, and donation made helps us continue investing in the future of Morton students.

Join us, get involved, and make a difference! Your participation helps provide graduating seniors with opportunities to pursue their next chapter. Support a fundraiser, bring a friend, and help us pay it forward for the next generation of Morton students.

Our Dinner & Theatre Nights take place at Morton East in the Spring and Morton West in the Fall. Guests enjoy a delicious four-course, play-inspired meal that is planned, prepared and served by our very talented Culinary Arts students, followed by VIP seating for the performance.

Student musicians perform during our appetizers and mocktail hour and guests have the opportunity to purchase souvenir mugs filled with chocolate covered pretzels or signed cast posters, bid on our beautiful centerpieces, take souvenir photos, and win one of several fabulous raffle prizes.

“The dinner and theater event hosted by the J.S. Morton District 201 Foundation did an outstanding job in showcasing the talent of our local students participating in both the culinary program and theater program. I support the Foundation in its mission of inspiring and enriching our Morton students through opportunities and resources that support their educational experiences. The success of our Morton students enhances the vibrancy of the Berwyn community.”
