What is a Gift Gathering Party? –The gift gathering party is exactly what its name implies. It is our opportunity to gather gifts donated by parish and school families to be auctioned off at our annual parish Celebration Event.
Do I really have to pay $50 per couple? –$50 is a suggested minimum retail value for a gift to be donated. You can solicit your donation from a business, a friend or a neighbor, or purchase an item. Some families like to combine their purchasing power and go in on a larger gift together. Don’t forget about services such as housekeeping, handyman, or gardening, they make great auction items also. If shopping is not your thing, consider writing a check for $50 or more. That money can then be used to purchase larger items. Frequent flyer miles and time shares are also good items to donate. For other ideas, check out our wish list under the Celebration tab on the school website www.holycrosscatholicschool.com .
