Gala

An Evening to Support CM Students

We are delighted to announce that the 2025 Catholic Memorial Gala will take place on Thursday, April 10, 2025, at the Four Points by Sheraton in Norwood. This year brings with it a very special evening that unites the CM community to honor the Vince in Bono Malum Award recipient, the late Michael D. McNally ’79, P’22, CEO, President, and Founder of Maverick Construction Corporation, and the Blessed Edmund Ignatius Rice Award recipient, Cardinal Seán Patrick O’Malley, OFM Cap. and to raise vitally important funds for Catholic Memorial. It will also serve as a celebration of a decade of success under Dr. Peter F. Folan and his team's outstanding contributions to our beloved school.

Last year’s Gala helped CM award $5.4 million in financial aid to 66% of our students; your 2025 support will be truly life-changing for our young men. This year, in addition to sponsorship opportunities to support financial aid, you are invited to consider a naming opportunity through your gala donation. Please view the Courtyard, Classrooms, and Crossroads brochure to learn how you can help advance CM’s programs and priorities.

Sponsorship Opportunities are currently available. Please contact Kristen Haggerty at kristenhaggerty@catholicmemorial.org or (617)-469-8094 with any questions or to secure your sponsorship and/or naming opportunity.
