Fundraising Events

The NDP Advancement Department traditionally supports six annual fundraising events. These events are well attended and provide an opportunity for friends, neighbors, business associates and relatives to get to know our NDP community. The revenue generated from these events is a key factor in achieving our fundraising goals. Not only do the funds raised help bridge the gap between tuition fees and the actual cost to educate, but most recently, we were able to complete a number of campus beautification projects, improve campus safety and update our technology. CULINARY FESTIVAL | NOVEMBER 6 Favorite restaurants from all over the Valley bring their culinary delights to this fabulous dining extravaganza under the stars on the NDP campus. This 21+ event is casual, and features adult beverages, a silent auction and much more! ndpsaints.org/culinaryfest. GOLF TOURNAMENT | DECEMBER 1 Scottsdale in December is the perfect time for a round of golf at the gorgeous Troon North Golf Course. Our annual “best-ball” scramble format golf tournament is designed for golfers of all abilities. There are fun games, a putting contest and a raffle for added excitement. Organize a foursome or come as a single, but join us for a great day on the links. For more information, please visit ndpsaints.org/golf. SAINTS 5K | JANUARY 29 Help us raise awareness for Teen Mental Health! This is a Notre Dame Prep event focused on teens helping teens address common mental health issues including suicide prevention, depression and anxiety. Saints are stronger when they stand together! Proceeds from the race will benefit Amplif[i], a teen empowerment program from notMYkid. For more information, please visit ndpsaints.org/saints5K. CASINO NIGHT | FEBRUARY 12 Dads’ Club organizes the NDP Casino Night complete with live music, food, drinks, cigars and, of course, Vegas-style gaming. We encourage parents to bring their friends for a night of winning for NDP! The 21+ evening is full of fun and excitement for our community and beyond.

MARDI GRAS DAY OF GIVING | MARCH 1 Mardi Gras or Fat Tuesday is a special day at NDP. Our NDP Live! club hosts a livestream-a-thon to raise as much money in one day as possible. Their 8-hour broadcast is full of fun contests, House challenges and testimonials about the many ways NDP has impacted the lives of current and former students. It takes place the day before Lent begins and we ask our entire community to #giveitup4NDP and make a donation. All proceeds are added to Saints Fund for tuition assistance and urgent school priorities. Watch all of our livestreams at youtube.com/notredameprep!

ANNUAL AUCTION FASHION SHOW | MAY 14 The Auction Fashion Show is our largest fundraiser of the year and gives our entire community a night of good times and glamour while supporting our mission. After a fastpaced auction and dinner, we partner with Dillard’s at Fashion Square to put on a spring fashion show, featuring our seniors as the models! It’s a wonderful tradition at NDP with fun for parents from all grade levels. Go to ndpsaints.org/afs for more information.
