Valley Catholic School Gala
VCS Gala was a Valiant Celebration
The VCS Gala dinner and auction was a Valiant success. Together, we raised more than $350,000 for VC students and programs!
Thank you to everyone who joined in and supported VCS students. It was an amazing celebration of Valley Catholic faculty, families, students and alumni at our annual Gala dinner and auction.
If you were unable to attend the Gala you can still support VCS and its students by giving to Light-a-Fire below. Gifts are 100% tax deductible and provide the gift of a Valley Catholic education to everyone who wishes to receive one – regardless of their financial circumstances.
Together, we help the Sisters of St. Mary of Oregon continue their tradition of providing an exceptional Catholic education to students and families.
