Saturday, April 18 | 5:00 p.m. - 10:30 p.m.
Dear Elyria Catholic Community,
The Elyria Catholic Gala Committee is pleased to follow the strength and example set forth by teachers, students and businesses everywhere during this time of crisis to deliver our Elyria Catholic 2020 Forward Gala in a virtual format! We are grateful for all of the sponsors, advertisers, auction donors and the Gala Committee who have recommitted their support to our Elyria Catholic students during this difficult time.
Please visit our website www.elyriacatholic.com/2020forwardgala or Facebook Pages to join our virtual event. Please join us on Saturday, April 18th from 5:00pm to 10:30pm for a tribute to our Award Winners, some entertainment and a reconnection to our EC Community! Our silent auction and raffles will go live on Easter Sunday, April 12th. All proceeds will benefit our Performing Arts program.
On March 13th, when we postponed the gala, there were 182 paid and registered guests at sponsor and corporate tables, private tables and with individual ticket purchases. We are currently in the process of reaching out to the payee from each party to see if they are willing to donate their ticket price back to our cause.
Those who are able to maintain their commitment will receive the following…
- A tax acknowledgement of their full gift
- Recognition as a Sponsor, Corporate Table Sponsor, Private Table Sponsor or Ticket Sponsor in the online Event Program
In addition, each registered guest will receive...
- 24 Hour Advance Access to the Silent Auction and Raffles on Saturday, April 11th
- An Early Bird Raffle Ticket with a 1 in 182 chance of winning $1000
- An officially branded Elyria Catholic deck of standard playing cards
Those who are not interested or unable to remain as a ticket sponsor will receive a full refund.
If you have any questions regarding this event, please contact Michelle Hoffman at hoffman@elyriacatholic.com or 440.666.6018 (cell) or Kelsie Stites at stites@elyriacatholic.com.
