This year I have the honor of serving as the Fund-Raising Chair for St. Bede's Italian Catholic Federation's (1.C.F.) Annual Bake Sale and Silent Auction. This event on March 17, 2024, typically draws the attention of our more than two thousand parishioners and other Southern California I.C.F. members.

I am asking for your support through a tax-deductible donation that will directly enhance our fundraising efforts and aid us in supporting our numerous philanthropic efforts, including college scholarships, holiday gifts for patients at Childrens Hospital in Los Angeles, research to overcome Thalassemia (Cooley's Anemia), a blood disease that affects children of Mediterranean, Middle Eastern and Asian birth. Most of the money we raise is through our annual St. Joseph Table.

If you are interested in supporting our efforts, please complete the Donation Form. Donations and associated contacts will be featured on our Facebook page, and auction displays at the event. We will also provide a donation receipt letter for your records.

We appreciate any donation such as food donations, gift certificates, wine, vacation rentals, and tickets to sporting events. Thank you in advance for your support.
