South Sudanese Sponsored Fundraiser for
Cathedral Academy at Pompei
Cathedral Academy at Pompei families from South Sudan created their first fundraiser. The planned the food and fun for Saturday, January 14, 2012, 5:30-8:30pm, at the St. Peter Parish Center on Willow Street. They met on Saturdays from October to January, the only time they were free from their jobs. They hoped and prayed for active participation in this new venture and were pleased with the successful results.
The African food was delicious and the macaroni and cheese along with Italian dishes made by CAP teachers brought an international flavor to the event. They raffled a flat screen TV, won by Sister Frances of the Franciscan Missionary Sisters. The traditional dances and singing were unforgettable too. A major highlight of the evening was the presentation of honors to special guests who have given their time and talents to the South Sudanese.
The success of this event has inspired the South Sudanese Families to organize another event for the school during the summer.
