Why we exist
A Catholic education, within reach for every family.
For nearly a century, St. Gerald School has formed students in faith, character, and academics. The Giant Education Foundation exists to make sure cost is never the reason a child has to leave.
Every dollar raised — at the gala and year-round — goes toward tuition assistance, faith and enrichment programs, and the campus our students learn in.
The evening
What the night holds
A gala built to bring the community together — and to do real good.
Dinner & Program
An evening together — hosted dinner, a few words, and a toast to the next generation of Giants.
Live & Silent Auction
Spirited bidding on experiences and packages, with every paddle raised supporting St. Gerald families.
Sponsorships
Family and business sponsors power the night and are recognized throughout the event and online.
