This year's Jack and Jill fund-raising brunch and silent auction hopes to result in ten scholarships for deserving kids.

If you’ve had a long week and have been itching to relax and groove to some of the best music around while dining on a fantastic brunch, country club style, then we have the place for you. 

This Sunday, come out to the Jack and Jill Annual Jazz Brunch and Silent Auction at the to enjoy an afternoon of jazz, brunch and a silent auction. Titled, “Jazz Up the Hill,” KTLA-5’s anchorman, Chris Schauble will serve as the master of ceremonies and jazz bassist Donald Patterson will be on hand to entertain the crowd as they munch on fine dining and bid on goodies up for auction.

Up for grabs to the highest silent bidder will be vacation packages, airline travel,  VIP sports tickets, box seats at event venues and more. Last year the auction helped raise money to fund six scholarships. This year, Jack and Jill is hoping to garner enough to give away ten scholarships to much deserved students in underprivileged homes.
