4. Sponsor the Event
Our Masquerade Soirée is more than an evening of elegance and enchantment—it’s a celebration of community and a commitment to enriching the educational experiences of our elementary schoolers. With over 160 engaged parents and supporters in attendance, this event offers sponsors a unique opportunity to showcase their brand in a warm, family-focused setting. Each sponsorship level unlocks visibility, gratitude, and connection—whether through signage, social media, or on-site presence. By supporting this cause, you’re helping dreams take shape behind every little mask. Join us in making magic happen. If you would like to pay by stock donation, please reach out to Lyndsay Hanna wileyelementaryfoundation@gmail.com
Why Your Support Matters
Proceeds from the Soirée benefit Wiley's Cecilia Rawlins Fund and the Wiley Elementary Foundation—directly supporting our school in areas beyond the PTA’s scope. Help us make a difference! All proceeds from this event and auction are shared 50-50 by the organizations.
Parking
Transfer Co. Food Hall offers a surface lot, but it fills quickly since it’s shared with all patrons. Free street parking is available nearby on East and Davie Streets, with decks like Moore Square (233 S. Wilmington St.) and Dillon (223 S. West St.) just a short walk away. Since parking isn’t reserved, we encourage ride sharing—it’s the easiest, safest way to arrive, and perfect if you plan to enjoy more of downtown Raleigh before or after the soirée.
