Thank You for Lighting the Way for Valley Catholic Students
“As a Valley Catholic alumna, I know firsthand how this community can
shape your life, help you discover your passions, and create experiences
that stay with you long after graduation.”
– Meredith Weber Gordon ’01, VCS Gala Emcee
What a wonderful evening celebrating the Valley Catholic community!
Thank you to everyone who joined us for the Valley Catholic School Gala. Your
generosity and enthusiasm made the evening truly memorable, especially during
Light-a-Fire, our paddle raise for tuition assistance. Together, we are opening doors
for more students while carrying forward the Sisters of St. Mary of Oregon’s 140-
year legacy of faith, education, and service.
This year’s Light-Fire video features the Schaal families. Their stories capture what
makes Valley Catholic so special: a place where students belong, discover their
passions, build lasting friendships, and experience those unforgettable Only at
Valley moments.
We invite you to watch their story and see firsthand why these opportunities matter
to students and families.
It’s Not Too Late to Light-a-Fire!
Make your Gift Today
Today, nearly one in four Valley Catholic students receives tuition assistance. Your

everything Valley Catholic has to offer.
You can give by credit card, check, stock, donor-advised fund, or qualified
charitable distribution from your IRA. Every gift helps keep the light of opportunity
burning bright!
