This is CCE's largest fundraiser of the year and a critical way of bringing financial support to our campus!
The money raised at the Gala funds SIPAT events and programs such at Fiesta, Circulo de Lectura, and Dia de los Muertos. The funds also allow SIPAT to support the school library, pay for professional development for our teachers and staff, and provide hospitality breakfasts and lunches to our staff, among other things.
We are looking for volunteers of all types to help coordinate and support this year's event. There is no experience required to join the planning committee, but if you have any experience in event planning, fundraising, networking, marketing, or project management, we'd love your expertise.
Please email Edgar Wong-Chen if you'd like to help out in any way. Thanks so much!
