St Gabriel Parish & School Auction 2023:

On behalf of the 2023 Auction Committee, I would like to say a sincere and heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped support this year’s auction. The event was a huge success and a night of FUN and FELLOWSHIP that will be remembered for the next 20 years! 

We are still processing last-minute donations and expenses but expect to share the results of our fundraising efforts with you soon. However, it is clear that the evening was an immense success for our parish and school. We could not have done it without our amazingly generous sponsors and supporters. 

We were very excited to host the dinner auction in our own building this year and are interested to hear how the attendees liked it therefore a survey will be out soon. We would love to hear from everyone who attended or participated in the online auction.

Thank you again from all of us on the 2023 Auction Committee.
