FUNDRAISING EVENTS

Congé
Each year, on the last Saturday in January, the parents, alumnae and students organize Congé to help support the education of the young women attending the finest Sacred Heart and college preparatory school in our city. As a result, Congé, the French word for holiday, is one of Omaha’s oldest celebrations and fund raising dinner auctions. Duchesne Academy receives proceeds from the $10,000 raffle, live and silent auctions, dinner reservations, catalog advertising and underwriting efforts. Plan to attend on January 31, 2009.

Chairmen for this years event are: Leah Bauer, Kathy and Peter Langdon, Janie and Greg Mikuls, Nancy and Jim Mulhall and Judy and John Wees.

Please contact Michon Marcil Abts at Mabts@duchesneacademy.org to find out the many ways you can volunteer to ensure the success of Duchesne’s largest fundraising event. 

The Duchesne Academy Golf Classic Aside from the good time shared on the links each fall, the golf tournament is a vital part of the school’s fundraising events. Card playing fun is always a part of each tournament. Volunteer opportunities abound at this event also, so don’t be shy! Ironwood Golf & Country Club, Monday, August 11.
