Description

We are contacting businesses and organizations on behalf of St. Patrick Catholic School in St. Charles, Illinois. St. Patrick School is a not-for-profit school providing quality Catholic education for students in grades Preschool through Eighth Grade. In existence for over 90 years, St. Patrick Catholic School continues to strive to expand its programs and offerings to its students and the community. Our student body is made up of families drawn from several surrounding communities including St. Charles, Wayne, Elburn, Geneva, Elgin, South Elgin and Aurora. St. Patrick School includes two separate campuses with a capacity of about 800 students between the two. Our downtown St. Charles location is home to our PK2-PK4 students and our northwestern St. Charles location is home to our Kindergarten through Eighth Grade students.

 

Now more than ever, we are so grateful for the community that has funded, volunteered, celebrated and advocated for St. Patrick Catholic School through the years. At a time when everything feels uncertain, we find comfort and encouragement knowing that we have such great supporters of our cause.

 

While much of the world has stopped, our mission to help support St. Patrick’s education will not be placed on pause. Our 25th Annual Emerald Evening fundraiser, which is organized by St. Patrick’s Home and School, will look different this year. Typically, a dinner, dance and live auction are held, but we have had to adapt our event due to the ever-changing circumstances of COVID. This year, we will be transforming this gala into “Virtually” the Event of the Year! – a virtual fundraising event to be held on April 17th, 2021.

 

We invite you to be a part of our event! You have the opportunity to promote your company and its products and/or services through a donation to our Emerald Evening Silent Auction, Corporate or Ad Sponsorship.  We are grateful for the generosity of previous contributors and we welcome any new donors.  An acknowledgement of your participation will be published on the auction website as well as in a banner outside St. Patrick School. Upon acquiring the donation, we would be happy to provide a tax exemption receipt. In an effort to continue to enhance the quality of education for our children, your corporate sponsorship and support will help guarantee our success in this endeavor.

 

We request that any donations need to be received by March 19th, 2021. On behalf of all of us at St. Patrick Catholic School, thank you for being part of our community and for your consideration! Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions.
