Fund a Need: Help to Make the 2021 Gala a Success!
This year’s Fund-a-Need goal will serve two purposes.
First, we will build a permanent shrine on our campus grounds honoring the Blessed Virgin Mary. This shrine will become a place for special prayer opportunities and a constant reminder of Mary, Mother of Divine Providence. And, Providence’s own Mr. Christopher Santer is involved in the design.
Second, all contributions beyond the estimated $50,000 needed to meet this goal will go toward a newly endowed scholarship to “fill the gap” for students who require additional need-based financial aid in order to attend Providence Academy. This scholarship will live in perpetuity thanks to the generosity of donors from our 2021 Gala.
Your tax-deductible donation can be made during the Fund-A-Need at the event. If you are unable to attend the gala, please utilize the online donation option on our Gala registration page, or mail your gift to Providence Academy, attention Gala Fund-A-Need.
Donate to the Live Auction or Silent Auction
A large portion of the proceeds raised from the Providence Academy Gala come from generous auction gifts from Providence families.
