Help the Mothers’ Club support Gaudiosa!

Here are some ways you can help support Gaudiosa:

Donations for Auction Baskets: Consider donating

libations or scratch-off lottery tickets! Donations can be

turned into Ms. Lynch in the Business Office – libations

must be brought in by an adult!

Sell Gas Cards: “Gas for a Year” has been generously

donated by the Capitano Family and Marathon Gas. It

includes fifty $50 gift cards! Every student is asked to

sell at least 5 gas cards. The winner will be announced

at Gaudiosa. If the students sell $20,000 in tickets, they

will be rewarded with a day off from school. If an

additional $5,000 is sold, an extra day will be granted!

All monies and ticket stubs should be turned into Ms.

Lynch in the Business Office by February 14th.

Volunteer: We can still use your help! There are many

opportunities to help with decorating, gift basket

wrapping, etc. Contact Jane Younger

jyounger@jesuittampa.org if you would like to

volunteer!
