I hope this message finds you well and continuing to make a meaningful impact in the world! As you may know, each spring, MPA hosts its signature fundraising event—the annual Spring Auction. However, this year’s celebration will be unlike any other.
This year, we come together for a truly special occasion: the 2025 Spring Auction: Gala of Gratitude, an evening dedicated not only to supporting MPA but also to honoring the incredible legacy of Dr. Bill Hudson as he bids farewell as head of school. This will be his final auction, marking the culmination of his years of leadership, his dedication to education, and the profound impact he has made on our community.
In recognition of Dr. Hudson’s commitment to MPA and its students, we are proud to introduce The Hudson Fund for Resilient Students. This newly established endowment will provide crucial support to students facing unforeseen challenges, ensuring they have the resources they need to thrive no matter what obstacles arise. This year’s Fund A Need portion of the auction will be dedicated to growing this vital fund—an opportunity for all of us to contribute to Dr. Hudson’s enduring legacy.
Of course, in true MPA fashion, the evening will also be filled with excitement! From thrilling auction items and the chance to win exceptional wines to lively conversation over cocktails, this is a night you won’t want to miss. More importantly, it’s a chance to reconnect, reminisce, and give back to the school that played such a pivotal role in shaping our lives.
So, mark your calendars and join us on Friday, April 4, at 6:30 PM at the stunning Omni Viking Lakes Hotel for an unforgettable evening of celebration, appreciation, and community.
I can’t wait to see you there!
