Gaudiosa 2016

Jesuit High School’s award-winning fundraising gala, Gaudiosa, is just over a month away, on Saturday, February 27 at the Hilton Tampa Downtown.

This year, Gaudiosa travels across the pond for An Evening in London. Jesuit’s award-winning Events Coordinator, Jane Younger, and her dedicated staff of volunteers are working diligently to make the 13th annual Gaudiosa another gorgeous, fun-filled event – all benefiting Jesuit’s financial aid! The past two years, Gaudiosa has raised nearly $1.4 million for the financial aid program, helping to ensure no qualified boy who wishes to receive a Jesuit education is denied the opportunity for financial reasons.

Gaudiosa has been chosen Tampa Bay’s favorite fundraising event three years running by the Tampa Bay Business Journal. For more information or to get involved – as a sponsor, patron, guest, auction donor, etc. – please visit the Gaudiosa page on the Jesuit website (www.jesuittampa.org/Gaudiosa).

Also, the Jesuit Gaudiosa page on Facebook will be providing sneak peeks at auction items.

Gaudiosa is a Latin term for "a joyous feast." The locational theme for each Gaudiosa is based on the travels of St. Ignatius of Loyola, the founder of the Society of Jesus - the Jesuits - in the 16th century.
