The 15^th Annual Northside Catholic Academy Soirée

What is the NCA Soirée?
The NCA Soirée is Northside Catholic Academy's largest annual fundraiser. This multi-faceted gala event raises funds to support the NCA Guardian Angel Scholarship Fund and both academic & facility improvements. The Guardian Angel Scholarship Fund helps to ensure that a quality Catholic education is available to all families in our community. This fund, and many school improvements, cannot be sustained without this essential fundraising event!

Our online auction will run from January 31^st–February 10^th. This year's gala event is on February 22, 2020 at Ravenswood Event Center. Join us for a spectacular evening of live & silent auctions, raffles, games, dinner, drinks, live music & dancing! Learn further details here.

Why Support?
Every sponsor & donor brings hope and opportunity to our students.

Academic Excellence. Faith. Community. These are the values that remain at the heart of who we are at Northside Catholic Academy. Our dedication to educating the whole child (intellectually, socially, physically, and spiritually) not only prepares our students academically, but instills in them values—values like kindness, respect, curiosity, creativity, responsibility, leadership, compassion, and service—which we strive to live out in our surrounding communities.

Thanks to the generous support of our donors, alumni, friends, and parents, we continue to offer our children a strong foundation, rooted in our Catholic values, that prepares them for success in high school and beyond. Thank you for your support in helping NCA continue to be the premier regional Catholic school on Chicago's north side.

How can I Contribute?
During the NCA Soirée, guests will have an opportunity to bid on a variety of items in our online, silent, and live auctions. Give a little and get a lot in return. Your donation of an item or experience is an invaluable part of our fundraising efforts. Please take a moment to consider what you, your business, or a family member might be able to donate.

• Do you have tickets for a sporting or entertainment (theater, concert, etc.) event? Does a family member or your business have tickets they could donate?
• Could a friend get an autographed item from a celebrity? Hot electronics: such as an iPhone, iPad, MacBook, AirPods?
• Do you or someone you work with have access to exclusive events or experiences?
• Would you or someone you know be willing to donate a vacation home for a week?
• We would love unique experiences, such as a helicopter tour over the city, a ride to school in a firetruck, a hot air balloon ride . . . the more creative the better.
• Spa or beauty experiences and gift certificates to restaurants are always valuable auction items.

This doesn't cover all the possibilities. If you have an idea, please reach out. Show your support and Donate Items here to contribute to our catalog.

Get Directions

169 years ago, on Chicago’s far north side, settlers followed their values of social justice, service, education, community & their Catholic faith. St. Henry Parish was the first of many parishes to spring up in our local neighborhoods. Seven of these parishes would eventually become a part of NCA. With great personal sacrifice, people gave to build & sustain their parish communities & schools. Today, we endeavor to follow their precedent & faithful spirit of giving so that in another 169 years, our school community will still be alive & thriving.
