It was an evening to support Catholic education as Futures in Education held its biggest fundraiser on Tuesday.
The annual gala at Cipriani Wall Street kicked off with performances from students of St Stanislaus Kostka Catholic Academy and Bay Ridge Catholic Academy.
The dinner, emceed by Currents News’ own Christine Persichetti, raises money for Futures in Education, which helps three thousand students attend Catholic schools across Brooklyn and Queens.
This year’s honoree and board chair of Our Lady of Hope Catholic Academy, Ignazio Artale, says a Catholic education is invaluable to young people of faith.
