The 2023 Mardi Gras Committee would like to thank YOU, the extraordinarily generous Gesu parents and sponsors, for your overwhelming support! Saturday February 4th was a HUGE success because of YOU! The Bulldog Gym was filled to the brim with positive energy, optimism about our future, and lots and lots of FUN. We are so humbled by your generosity and commitment to making our school the best it can be. This event was also a success due in large part to the support of Principal Regan Kazel, Father Laniauskas, the amazing teacher volunteers, and the school and parish staff – thank you for your tireless help with this event, and for all you do for our children each and every day. Mardi Gras 2023 was so successful, in fact, that we are still calculating the total amount raised… though we can tell you that we knocked our goal out of the park. We can’t wait to start renovating the third floor of Gesu School, creating more space for our students to learn and grow!
How blessed we are! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Gesu Catholic School benefits from a wonderful and generous community, for which we are grateful. The support of this community enables each one of us and future Gesu families to build upon the great legacy already in place. Gesu Mardi Gras is an annual fundraising event that raises funds to modernize and renovate our school.

SPONSORSHIP UPDATES
Thanks to the ENORMOUS generosity of all of you, we saw great success with Mardi Gras 2022 and have completely renovated the 1st floor bathrooms near the 1st grade classrooms as well as the nurse’s station. These were much needed updates that our kids benefit from daily and will for years to come. Thank you Mardi Gras supporters!
