HAMMOND, Ind. (March 27, 2024) – Bishop Noll Institute is proud to announce the return of its annual fundraiser, The Big Event! Now in its 103rd school year, Bishop Noll continues its mission to educate students in mind, body, and soul. This annual fundraiser helps raise critical funds to support student scholarships, affording many students the opportunity to attend the private, Catholic high school.
The Big Event! will take place from 6 to 11 p.m. Saturday, April 27 in the Bishop Noll fieldhouse (1519 Hoffman Street, Hammond, IN). This 21+ evening promises to be a fun-filled celebration featuring a catered dinner by Pepino’s, entertainment, exciting raffles, and much-anticipated silent and live auctions.
New this year will be the opportunity to tour recently renovated areas of the school including the BNI STREAM Lab and music room. Student representatives from various clubs and athletics will also be in attendance to talk to guests about their Bishop Noll experiences.
Guests can participate in-person or virtually, with both options offering the chance to bid on a wide range of auction items. From getaways and experiences to gift cards and sports tickets, there’s something for everyone. Popular past items have included Florida vacations, themed baskets, and BNI experiences like preferred seating at graduation and even the chance to choose your own locker.
Proceeds from The Big Event! directly benefit Bishop Noll’s student scholarship fund. Typically raising more than $50,000, these funds play a vital role in ensuring a BNI education remains accessible to deserving students, regardless of financial limitations.
Bishop Noll is seeking the support of the community to make The Big Event! a resounding success. Sponsorship opportunities, auction item donations and ticket purchases are greatly appreciated.
