Mar 26, 2017 Thank you to the incredibly generous INTL\* community for making this year's [Gala & Auction](https://www.istp.org/page/support/special-events) – Hollywood Glitz & Glamour – our most successful fundraiser yet! Our guests were treated to the real red carpet experience, complete with Middle School paparazzi, a living Oscar, and INTL's own red carpet host, Brent Sapiro! During the spirited live auction, our amazing donors raised a record-setting $350,000 for our students, including $150,00 for the Maker Education Fund-a-Need. None of this would have been possible without the hard work and creativity of this year's Gala Co-Chairs, Myra Flores and Jean Sapiro. Thank you so much for everything you have done! Watch this video to see some highlights of the night, and look for more photos and videos in the week to come!
