Hope for Haiti Festival - Saturday, April 10th

Join the St. Francis Community for a night filled with games, activities, food and friendship as we come together to raise money for an important cause. On Saturday, April 10th, St. Francis will open its doors to St. Francis families and its surrounding communities for the Hope for Haiti Festival. The event is set to raise money to fund the mobile unit of Feed My Starving Children on our campus to pack 100,000 meals on May 14th for the people of Haiti. The festival is designed for all ages to enjoy. Activities include: speed pitch, hockey shot, bungee run, dunk tank, ping pong, bags, face painting, kiddie games, bingo, snow cones, food and much, much more! The activities will run from 5-8pm. Following the events we will celebrate mass together and all are again welcome to join. We hope this will be a night of unity and community, and we certainly hope to see you there!

Any questions about the festival on April 10th please email or call Kate Kowalski at kkowalski@sfhsnet.org or 630-668-5800 ext. 1162.
