We are excited to kick off our highly anticipated MONTINI Carlo Benefit Auction & Casino Night on April 12th at Bobak's Signature Events in Woodridge! This event is not just a fun evening—it’s a critical opportunity for parents like you to come together in support of our school and make a lasting impact on our students' education.

This event is an essential part of our fundraising efforts, and we need your participation to make it a success. Here’s why your attendance is so important:

Your presence at the event directly contributes to the continued growth and success of our school. All funds raised will support our educational services and programs that inspire our students to learn and prepare them to succeed.

It’s a wonderful chance to connect with fellow parents, faculty, and staff, all while having fun and supporting a great cause.

The auctions, both silent and live, along with our raffles and games feature amazing items and experiences, your bids and participation can make a huge difference for our students!

What You Can Expect:

• Silent & Live Auction: Incredible items, unique experiences, and exclusive packages await your bids.
• Casino Games: Enjoy blackjack, roulette, and more, while testing your luck for a good cause.
• Paddle Raise: This year’s paddle raise will help Montini revitalize two classrooms, transforming them into modern, functional spaces. From infrastructure to paint colors, every detail will be designed to enhance both the atmosphere and the learning experience. Our goal is for these classrooms to inspire pride in both teachers and students while meeting the needs of 21st-century education.
• Attire: Casino casual - nice jeans, collared shirts, blouses, dressy skirts, or khakis - attire that looks neat and presentable, while still comfortable for a night out at the casino
• Food & Fun: Delicious passed appetizers and food stations, open bar, and entertainment will make this an unforgettable night for all.
• Goal: With the support of our sponsors, donors, guests, bidders and volunteers our goal is to raise $200,000 and additionally fund 2 classroom revitalizations through the paddle raise.
