Become a Legacy Gala Sponsor

Our Legacy Gala would not be possible without the generous support of our families, alumni, parishioners, local businesses, and community partners.

Sponsorship opportunities are available at several levels, ranging from Friends of Holy Spirit and the Honoree Circle to our premier Legacy Sponsor. Sponsorship benefits may include Gala tickets, event signage, digital slideshow recognition, website and social media recognition, and prominent event recognition depending upon the sponsorship level.

Your support helps make this special evening possible while celebrating and sustaining the legacy of Holy Spirit School.

Celebrate the Legacy. Support the Future.

For generations, Holy Spirit School has been more than a school—it has been a community built upon faith, family, education, service, and tradition.

We hope you will join us on November 20th as we celebrate those who have helped shape our legacy and come together to ensure that the mission of Holy Spirit School continues for generations to come.

We look forward to celebrating with you!
