Why Sandstone?
Our beautiful building at 3860 Main Street stands proudly and with resolve due in large part to a generous donation of "sandstone" rock that became its foundation in 1928. Within these sturdy walls, some old, some new, generations of intelligent, creative and spiritually minded young women have, in turn, constructed the powerful legacy envisioned 142-years ago by the Sisters of St. Francis when they founded our beloved institution.
That legacy continues to be upheld by the students, alumnae, distinguished faculty, staff, families, donors and countless volunteers who strengthen and elevate Sacred Heart's mission by supporting the Sandstone Auction. We truly hope you can join us as we continue to build on the "foundation" and enable future generations of young women to be educated, empowered and inspired in the Franciscan tradition!
Our annual
Sandstone Dinner Auction and Gala gathers hundreds of alumnae, past and current parents and other friends of SHA at our largest and most important fundraising event of the year. Attendees mix and mingle with friends old and new, and stroll through the hallways, classrooms and gymnasiums of our beloved building at 3860 Main Street, while participating in exciting raffles, and bidding on the amazing prizes offered in our silent and live auctions.
Gift-gathering parties are held throughout the year to collect auction and raffle prizes that have included: designer purses and accessories, household gifts, priceless sports memorabilia, amazing beach, golf and Disney vacation packages, exclusive concert tickets, sports ticket packages and more. We hope you will consider donating an
auction item or becoming a
sponsor to support this outstanding event. Most importantly, gather some friends and plan to join us for a fun night out!
Consider serving as a
Sandstone volunteer. Help is needed in numerous areas.
