gala time.

We’re just two weeks from the 11th Annual Catholic Charities Gala 2019! Our 11th annual event will include dinner, drinks and dancing. There will be entertainment, awards and a raffle. But most important, Gala lets us say a heartfelt thanks to our supporters.

This year, Gala focuses on the ways in which YOU ARE THE MIRACLE! Catholic Charities began more than a century ago when a group of parishioners from across the Diocese came together to pool their resources and solve local problems.

That supporter-driven, grassroots spirit continues to allow us to serve 70,000 people annually. We are grateful for our donors who faithfully support us year in and year out and for our volunteers who unfailingly show up to provide essential services and companionship to our clients.

At Gala, we invite you to come celebrate yourself! Throughout the evening, you can visit the Oh Shoot Photo Booth for a fun event keepsake. Then, enjoy the jazz, swing and blues of the Hot Club of Spokane, and dance the night away.

After a dinner of a bibb wedge salad and petit beef filet and prosciutto-wrapped salmon (with a choice of scrumptious desserts!), our awards ceremony will lift up supporters of Catholic Charities who exemplify our mission. The Bishop’s Medal and Volunteer of the Year Award recognize those who have made extraordinary miracles happen for our clients.

Finally, you will have the chance to experience dramatic presentations of the miracles you make possible. Local actors will present the real journeys our real clients have taken, from homelessness to housed and from addiction to sobriety.

Gala promises to be a special evening! If you’re interested in attending, there’s still plenty of time to register! Tickets are $125, or $80 for people aged 21-30.
