Lakeview Educational Foundation, which is affiliated with Northern Mercer County Community Foundation, was created last year for donors who want to enhance the quality of life for students in the school district.
The foundation manages individual gifts and bequests as an endowed pool of assets, and distributes grants, scholarships and awards to recipients for humanitarianism, educational and alumni projects, student achievement and student needs.
A volunteer board of local community leaders is accountable to donors and the community, and oversees the foundation's administration and distribution of funds.
An admission fee will be charged at the auction.
