Valley Catholic School Gala

VCS Gala was a Valiant Celebration

The VCS Gala dinner and auction is almost here. Get ready to celebrate all things Valley Catholic this Saturday, Nov. 2 at NW Events in Hillsboro. We will gather as a campus community, be inspired by the Light-a-Fire story, honor this year’s alumni award winners, and enjoy the silent and live auctions.

Together, we can play an important role in providing access to an exceptional Catholic education to more than 1,000 students and their families.

Proceeds from the Gala help Valley Catholic School meet its annual operating budget and provide financial aid resources for students in need.  Check out the 2024 Gala Catalog and use the boxes below to bid on the online auction items, make a donation and get more information. Contact Caroline Fogarty for more information.
