What is the Cardinal Crusade?
The Cardinal Crusade is an evening of fun and fellowship supporting Pacelli Catholic Schools. The event consists of socializing, hors d’oeuvres, dinner, basket raffle, games, prize drawings, an online silent auction, and a live auction with many great items, packages, and experiences that you could call your own. One of the largest annual fundraisers, second only to Panacea, 100% of the proceeds of the Cardinal Crusade go to supporting the nearly 800 children served each year in our childcare, preschool, and K-12 educational programs, rich in academic excellence and rooted in faith.
When & where is the Cardinal Crusade?
Mark your calendars: the 10th Annual Cardinal Crusade Live Auction & Dinner is scheduled for Saturday, February 4, 2023 at Pacelli Catholic High School in the FACC. Doors will open at 4:30PM with big early bird drawings at 5PM and 6PM. The fun will continue with hors d’oeuvres, games, prizes, and a basket raffle, with dinner at 6:30PM followed by even more exciting games and the main event, our live auction.
