Planning for the 29th Annual Cedar County Catholic Schools Gala & Grand Auction is well underway!
We cordially invite you to attend “Gala 2024; A Night at the Golden Globes” on Saturday, March 16, 2024 at the Msgr. Cyril J. Werner Activity Center.
Our annual event features a dinner, as well as a Silent and Grand Auction. The Gala has been blessed to receive a large variety of wonderful auction gifts and cash donations that are listed as “Friends of the Gala.” Our Catholic students also get involved by conducting a Gala Raffle each year.
With the continued help and support of committee volunteers and supporters, our Annual Gala dinner auction has grown to be one of the largest around. Our three Catholic schools greatly depend upon a successful event for our school budgets. Approximately 400 children who attend Cedar Catholic Jr.-Sr. High School, Holy Trinity Elementary School, and East & West Catholic Elementary Schools have greatly benefited from the Gala by raising approximately $5.87 million in twenty-nine years.
Thank you to all Gala committee members, helpers, and supporters for sharing your time, talents, and treasures that are essential for a successful Gala. But most of all, we give continued thanks to God for His tremendous blessings in providing the means to provide generous support for our Catholic schools’ budgets.
God is Good!
