Mater Christi Gala
Rooted in Faith, Guided by Grace
Dear Friend:
Mater Christi School and Parish invites you to partner with us as a sponsor for our upcoming fundraising gala, Rooted in Faith, Guided by Grace, to be held on Saturday, February 28, 2026 from 5:30–9:30 p.m. in the reception hall at St. Sophia Greek Orthodox Church, 440 Whitehall Road, Albany, NY.
This special evening will celebrate over 70 years of faith-filled education and parish life. We will be honoring our volunteers whose time, talent, and dedication sustain the ministries of Mater Christi Parish and School. Their service, often quiet and unseen, forms the foundation of our community and ensures that our students continue to grow academically, spiritually, and morally.
The evening will include a happy hour reception, dinner, silent auction, music and dancing, providing an opportunity for fellowship while supporting the mission of Catholic education in Albany. Proceeds from the gala will directly support student programming, faith formation initiatives, and the continued vitality of Mater Christi School.
We invite you to consider becoming a sponsor of our wonderful event! Sponsorship opportunities offer valuable recognition while demonstrating your commitment to faith, education, and our community. We have included our sponsorship levels and benefits.
Your generosity will help ensure that Mater Christi remains rooted in faith and guided by grace for generations to come. We would be honored to recognize your support and welcome you as a partner in this important mission.
Thank you for your prayerful consideration. Should you have any questions or wish to discuss sponsorship opportunities, please contact either Judy Field (518) 424-8076 or Kathleen Childs (518)482-1428.
