Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Pacelli Catholic Schools is holding its Charging Forward 2020 annual Benefit Auction online only and we need your support.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this year’s auction will be conducted via online/mobile bidding only. All funds raised via the online process will greatly benefit the operations of Pacelli Catholic Schools.

During this unprecedented time, your support is needed now more than ever.  Our school and community will come out of this stronger. We are better together and we’ve witnessed this in so many ways over the past two weeks.  We are truly blessed.
