Description
The St. Denis*St. Columba Parent School Association proudly presents our 1st Annual Gift Gala Masquerade. The Gift Gala is an elegant cocktail party where guests are served sumptuous hors d'oeuvres and a little bit of intrigue. Guests are invited to participate in the mystique of the evening by bidding in secrecy on grand gift baskets at the silent auction. Those who wish to leave their destiny to good fortune are able to purchase raffles for equally magnificent prizes. At the close of the evening, the shroud of mystery is lifted as participants raise their masks high to bid on the exclusive gifts offered during a live auction.

Our generous donors will be recognized in many ways. Donors will be acknowledged on the Gift Gala Masquerade Facebook Page, the St. Denis*St. Columba School webpage, the monthly Parent School Association newsletter, the St. Columba Church Parish weekly bulletin and in all event publicity. Members of the local community are welcome to participate in the raffles and silent auctions without attending the Gift Gala Masquerade, increasing the advertising value to donors well beyond the reach of the event. During the evening of the event, every donor will be recognized inside a program and each will be displayed alongside the auction and raffle items. Opportunities also exist for display of business signage and logos during the event. Exceptionally generous donors will be acknowledged verbally during the live auction.

All of the proceeds from the Gift Gala Masquerade directly benefit the students of St. Denis*St. Columba School. St. Denis*St. Columba is a Catholic, co-educational community where future leaders strive for academic excellence, learn to live by virtues, and show respect for the dignity of each person. St. Denis*St. Columba School is located in the scenic Hudson Valley, just 70 miles north of New York City.
