Welcome Welcome

Dear Men and Women of Oz,

Welcome to Oz! The Munchkins are polishing the Yellow Brick Road in advance of tonight’s Ensuring Our Future Auction in downtown Emerald City! There are amazing items up for bid to take along for your trip back to Kansas - returning home. So, raise your glass and those paddles to Ensuring Our Future!

All funds raised tonight directly support our mission as a Catholic, college preparatory learning community that promotes spiritual, academic, physical, and social development in the daily presence of Jesus Christ. Specifically, funds are used to sustain and advance three core areas: academics, co-curricular activities, and tuition assistance.

Tonight’s fun-filled auction is possible with the hard work of Chair, Lynn Gilroy; her amazing volunteer crew; Danielle Costello, our Manager of Special Events; and the support of the entire Advancement Office. Thanks to their creativity, dedication, and passion, we are in store for a great evening together. We also extend a heartfelt thank you to our donors—parents, grandparents, faculty, staff, alumni, and friends—for giving your time, talent, and treasure for the good of our students!

Thank you, God bless you, and God bless St. Francis High School! There’s No Place Like Home, There’s No Place Like Home, There’s No Place Like Home…
