Benefit Gala

75 Years of Catholic Campus Ministry

Saturday, March 29, 2008

McAuley Hall, Upper School, Walsingham Academy

We wish to thank all those who gave selflessly of their time and talent to help make our Second Annual Benefit Gala at Walsingham Academy a huge success!!!  On March 29, Saint Bede parishioners, alumni, and friends of CCM attended the catered event featuring entertainment groups from William & Mary, a silent auction, and a raffle.

CCM raised over $31,000, which will directly benefit the CCM Endowment Fund.  The purpose of the Endowment Fund is to allow the students to achieve financial self-sufficiency in order to keep the CCM Chapel and facilities fully operational.  The students are deeply grateful to the many sponsors, local businesses, and friends of CCM for their generous support:
