Verte 2020 Postponed Until the Fall

To the Grades of Green Family,

Because the health and well-being of our students, supporters, staff and the broader community must come first, Grades of Green is announcing the postponement of Verte 2020 - our annual fundraising gala - until the fall.

Like all of you, we've been closely monitoring the developing coronavirus (COVID-19) situation and are taking every opportunity to ensure our students and staff remain safe. Staff will be working remotely starting today and will continue to support our students' ongoing projects using the same virtual collaboration platforms that are already an integral part of our program.

We're currently working closely with our venue, vendors, and honorees to secure a new date and will provide you with further details as soon as they are confirmed.

To those who have donated items in support of Verte or have already purchased tickets and tables, thank you and don't worry! We will of course honor ticket and table purchases and use your generous donations in our auction this fall. We will be contacting you with more information.

On behalf of the Grades of Green Board of Directors, Staff and our student Eco-Leaders, thank you for your understanding and continued support during this difficult time.

Please stay healthy and safe - together we'll get through this!

Kim Siehl,

Executive Director
