Support Our Fundraisers
Fundraisers
What type of fundraisers does the Morton 201 Foundation have?
Whether it’s purchasing raffle tickets to a sports game, buying tickets to a dinner and theatre event, or bidding on an auction item, supporting our fundraisers helps to raise money for our Pay It Forward Scholarship Fund, which provides scholarships to graduating seniors.
We currently host three fundraisers a year: two Dinner & Theatre Nights and one online auction.
Dinner & Theatre Nights
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. During appetizers, student musicians serenade our guests prior to a private meet and greet with the main cast members before the show. Attendees also have the opportunity to take souvenir photos with the cast, win one of several fabulous raffle prizes, bid on our beautiful centerpieces and purchase signed cast posters.

Support Local Online Auction
Since 2020, the Morton 201 Foundation has hosted an annual online auction the week after Thanksgiving.
Our Support Local Online Auction is the largest fundraiser of the year and helps to support local businesses and organizations while raising money for scholarships.
Anyone can view the items in our auction, but you must register in order to place a bid.
We are always looking for local businesses, organizations and private donors who are interested in being corporate sponsors or making monetary and in-kind donations to support our event.
In exchange for their donation, businesses will be promoted on our online auction site, website and social media platforms and included in all pre-auction promotional materials as well as on the websites and social media platforms of our event partners.
The auction listing will include:
- Description of the auction item, business and its offerings/services
- Four to twelve photos
- Logo, address, contact info
- Link to your website or Facebook page
The 10 highest valued donations will receive premium placement in the Featured Item section of our auction site and on our social media platforms.
