How it works:
Where do proceeds go?
Our annual Continue the Dream gala directly supports the school’s important mission of helping students grow spiritually, academically and personally. Funds raised the night of the gala will directly benefit our students and help ensure they can continue to receive a quality, Catholic education at VASJ that’s rooted in Ursuline and Marianist traditions. By supporting the gala, you’ll play a role in helping us transform our students’ lives through faith and academic excellence.
