We are bubbling with excitement and ready to celebrate our LAST IMPALA GALA!

We are moving to a new exciting fundraising event for 2024 but will still keep an aspect of the original Impala Gala on campus through a band party and St. Ignatius specific items like Mardi Gras Queen, Principal for a Day, etc. 

We are keeping the fun, just changing the fundraising!

Stay tuned for the big reveal.

The money our school raises from Impala Gala  is critical to enhancing our school’s mission and highlighting the religious and educational experiences each of our children benefit from year after year. The funds are specifically used to build an environment conducive to competitive learning, promote the arts and technology, as well as giving your child the best opportunity to experience the love of Jesus in a personal and meaningful way.
