Gala Helper - Support Tenderloin and SF Youth!
ORGANIZATION: De Marillac Academy
Please visit the new page to apply.
Our Annual Scholarship Benefit not only serves as our largest fundraising event, it also serves as a community building event. Last year’s gala raised enough funds to provide scholarships for 67 of our 120 students that we serve each year. The gala revenue is a critical part of our ability to live out our mission and ensure the youth of the Tenderloin have access to high quality education and the opportunity to lead lives of choice, meaning
and purpose.
Each year, the success of this event relies on the assistance of volunteers like you. While each year brings a different over-arching theme for the evening, the areas we need assistance in remain constant.
