4th of July Festival- Join Us For a Day of Family Fun!
The Sisters of Notre Dame are busy planning a wonderful celebration for this year's 4th of July Festival. It's hard to believe, but this year marks our festival's 91st year. This festival remains our only fund-raising event, and we estimate that 3000 people attend annually. Money raised at the festival helps support our Uganda, East Africa Mission, locally our Notre Dame Urban Education Center, and our SND Retirement Fund.
We invite you to participate in our 4th of July Festival. Your presence and partnership gives us the opportunity to share together in the mission of Jesus by promoting Catholic education and fostering the fullness of life especially for people who are poor, sick, and aged. Please mark your calendar and plan to join us. We thank you in advance for your generosity.
