Bodine Bash
Ways to Get Involved
CARNAVAL: February 28, 2026
Dear friends of Bodine,
The Bodine Bash is our biggest fundraiser of the year. The proceeds benefit our tuition assistance fund for the 42% of Bodine families who rely on financial aid to access our transformative program. You can help our wonderful school by sponsoring or attending the event, donating an item or experience to the auction, or registering to bid online. Please join us for a night of good food and drinks with good friends for a good cause!
If you have questions about the Bodine Bash or other ways to support Bodine School, please contact:
