Heart of Gold Gala

Thank You for Making Our First Gala Unforgettable!

We’re still glowing from the joy of our inaugural Heart of Gold Gala - and we have YOU to thank! Your presence and generosity made Friday, April 4, 2025  a night to remember, and more importantly, a night that will open doors for our students.

Because of your incredible generosity, we not only reached our $1 million goal… we exceeded it! We are at $1.48 million and counting! That’s a powerful vote of confidence in our students, our mission, and our future.

From the passion of Board Chair Steve Hooper’s address to the commitment of Holy Boldness Award recipient Gaynell Walker, to CRJS student Vanessa’s touching story, the evening was a celebration of our mission and a reflection of the community we’re building together at Cristo Rey Jesuit Seattle.

Every gift helps us grow — welcoming our second class this fall, expanding our programs, building our Corporate Work Study program, and continuing to provide a rigorous, faith-based, college-prep education for students who deserve every opportunity to reach their God-given potential. 

Thank you for believing in our students, and for walking with our students to a hope-filled future, as we build a school that works — for college, careers, and for our students.

Thank you to all of the CRJS Heart of Gold Supporters!

Board Member, Holy Boldness Award Recipient, Gaynell Walker
