Bella Notte
Guests of the 2011 St. Bridget School Gala were invited to a beautiful night of great food, fine wine, delightful music and exquisite shopping as they perused the “St. Bridget Piazza” and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Italy! When good friends and family gather together to enjoy a little taste of Italy, it’s sure to be an incredible evening. And it was!
This year “Building Enhancements” were pledged. The spirit of St. Bridget School is alive and well, but the physical environment is in need of a few changes. After providing a high quality, faith-filled education for 59 years, it’s time to look at what we can do to increase the longevity of our building and continue to enhance the technology available to our students. Through this year’s pledge, we hope to install a modern outdoor sign, replace windows and lights with more energy efficient models, install new water fountains, purchase tablet computers for our upper elementary students, and again add to the endowment fund to further secure the future of our school.
Thanks to the dedication and generosity of many, the 7th Annual Gala raised approximately $95,000 for our parish school. It is worth noting that this event is so successful because of the monetary donations of MANY. Even though we have a few large donations, the majority of the money is raised by the combined efforts of the countless smaller donors. It proves, once again, that when we each do something small, together we can do something great!
Take a look at the pictures below for a small glimpse into the wonderful evening.
