Dear Friends, Welcome to the tenth annual Grand Gala, presented by Academy and BCB Bank. This evening is truly a celebration of the Prep family. Whether in the gift gathering parties or the envelope stuffing and gift wrapping sessions, the warmth and enthusiasm of the Prep family is outstanding. I have been looking forward to sharing this evening with you, and I know there will be something for everyone in both the silent and live auctions. More importantly, I know there is something for everyone in the noble purpose which brings us together – our support of the financial assistance program at Prep. More than a third of our students receive need-based financial aid. Your help is what enables these young men and their families to afford Prep, and our school community is stronger for their presence. As income inequality remains a hotly debated topic in our country, we stand firm in our commitment to helping students overcome the financial obstacles to a life-shaping Jesuit education. The Gala is the largest single source of funds to close the gap between what our endowments provide and the actual cost of providing financial aid. Thanks so much for giving life to this vital aspect of our mission. This year we celebrate the tenth Grand Gala. We can look back with pride to the $3.2 million raised since 2008, even as we set our sights for a record result this year. Special thanks are in order for the many people who have made this evening possible: The volunteers who have wrapped, packaged, stuffed and encouraged one another behind the scenes; the families who have welcomed us into their homes for the various gift-gathering parties; and especially our honorary co‑chairs, Fr. Bob Reiser, S.J. and Seton Ahearn, P’01, and our cochairs, Monica and Paul Cuccinelli, P’17, Trish and Bill Fitzpatrick, P’07,’16, Jennifer and Mike McGuire, P’17, and Liz and Bill Ruvo, P’15,’17. Finally, I would like to thank each of you for your presence here this evening and your generous and enthusiastic support of the Grand Gala. You are truly making a difference in the lives of hundreds of young men at Prep today. Sincerely,
Kenneth J. Boller, S.J. President

Dear Friends, Welcome to the tenth annual Grand Gala, presented by Academy and BCB Community Bank! We are so pleased to share this evening with you, and we are delighted to welcome our honorary co-chairs, Seton Ahearn, P’01 and Fr. Bob Reiser, S.J., who along with the late Bill Ahearn, ’75, P’01, brought the inaugural Gala to life back in 2008. We also join the entire Prep community in wishing the very best to Fr. Jim Keenan, S.J., who recently celebrated his 80th birtday. This night is a celebration of Saint Peter’s Prep and all it means to our community. Perhaps, like us, you have lived the Prep experience from a parent’s perspective, watching your sons grow from boys into men as part of a brotherhood that celebrates the diverse talents of its members, inspires intellectual and spiritual growth, and prepares them to meet life’s many challenges. Or perhaps you are an alumnus, whose formative moments took place in the halls of Grand & Warren, where you gained the competence that would open doors for you later in life, along with the conscience and compassion that would give meaning to those opportunities. Whatever your personal connection to Prep, you know the outstanding promise a Prep education holds for a young man and his family. And by being a part of the Gala, each of you helps to ensure it’s a promise kept. The generosity and commitment of the Prep community – alumni, parents, grandparents, friends, faculty, staff, and businesses – is on display here tonight, enabling Prep’s financial assistance program to grow, and enabling so many to achieve the dream of a quality Jesuit education. It’s a promise kept thanks to the volunteers, gift gathering hosts, donors, and sponsors who have made this evening possible through their support. It’s a promise kept thanks to the tireless work of Dalma Santana, Chris Casazza, and Prep’s entire advancement team to make this Prep’s biggest night of the year. And it’s a promise kept thanks to your decision to join us this evening and rededicate yourself to Prep’s mission, by your presence and participation. For the many gifts of time, talent, and treasure that have made the tenth annual Grand Gala a reality tonight, and that will make life at Grand & Warren a reality for students in need tomorrow, we offer our deepest appreciation. Prep calls upon all of us to be “Men and Women for Others.” Please know that by being here tonight, you have answered that call. Sincerely,
Monica and Paul Cuccinelli, P’17

You two can experience U2! U2 will roll into MetLife Stadium on June 28 as part of their Joshua Tree tour, with or without you. But don’t worry: you and a guest will roll up in a limousine before heading inside for one of the most anticipated music events of the year! This worldwide, 33-show tour is a celebration of the 30th anniversary of the legendary band’s Grammy-winning album, The Joshua Tree, and each show will see the entire album performed live. Rediscover what makes this U2’s best-selling work – and with more than 25 million copies sold, one of the best-selling albums of all time – and hear the first-ever live version of “Red Hill Mining Town!” The show is sold out, so if you still haven’t found what you’re looking for, here’s your chance to be a part of it!
