Welcome to Our 2023 Gala

Event Details

John Paul II High School cordially invites you to the

2023 Denim & Diamonds Gala

Saturday, February 11, 2023

6:00 Cocktails & Silent Auction • 7:30 Dinner & Live Auction

Renaissance Legacy West 

Western Cocktail Attire

Join us for a special evening celebrating the John Paul II High School community. The night includes a three-course seated dinner, open bar, silent and live auction, live entertainment, and a chance to honor you and your impact on our community. You are part of the Cardinal Family; without your support, none of this would be possible. This event is critical to our success as the funds raised support JPII's general operations, ensuring that all program donations go directly to those that need it most. All Fund-A-Cause contributions will be matched and all monies raised will be directed to the Annual Fund unless the donor wishes to direct them to a specific program or area of the school.

Silent Auction items not retrieved the night of the event will be available for pick-up from JPII.

The hotel room block has closed. If you are interested in booking a room at the Renaissance Legacy West for this night, please email shennydonnelly@johnpauliihs.org.

Silent Auction Items for the whole family include:

Authentic Louisiana Crawfish Boil for 12 

Movie Night Package

Pool Party Package

Texas Rangers Tickets

Hellquist Interior Design Services

Exquisite Diamond Jewelry

The Defined Dish Signed Cookbook & SideDish Sauces Set

Canvasback Waterfowl Fullbody Waiters

... and much more!
