Donor Event for #EmpoweredGirls Campaign

SUPPORT HOLY CROSS

CAPITAL CAMPAIGN EVENT CELEBRATES WOMEN LEADERS

Holy Cross parents/guardians and alumnae gathered at Silo Falls in Brookeville, MD in May to celebrate our empowered women and to begin a new tradition of recognizing women in leadership in our community.

Former Board chair and Advancement Committee Chair, Karen Schaeffer, was surprised and honored to receive the inaugural Sister Madeleva (Wolff), CSC Women in Leadership Award. Led by Raquel Bowman ’22, the program featured Megan Steele ’22, Emi Moberg ’22, and Cheyenne DeGross ’22- all of whom shared their experiences and deep gratitude for their Holy Cross education. Each was recognized with another new award, the Distinguished Tartan, from President Katy Prebble in honor of their outstanding commitment during their four years at the Academy.

During the presentation, Msgr. John Enzler shared appreciation and his family’s love for Holy Cross - all six of his sisters are proud Holy Cross graduates. Dave Metzger, co-chair of the #EmpoweredGirls campaign expressed his gratitude to the Academy and especially the importance of the Moreau Options Program to the entire community. Katy Prebble gave a short presentation on the proposed Athletic & Wellness Center and updated the group on the progress of our plans for the campus.

This is an exciting time for the Academy. If you would like to hear more about the plans and be part of this project, please contact the Advancement Office.
