SUMMER GALA TO SUPPORT CATHOLIC SCHOOLS SCHOLARSHIP FUND<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MASHPEE \u2014 The 20th annual FACE Summer Gala to support Catholic school students in the Fall River Diocese is set for Friday, July 14, at the Willowbend Country Club in Mashpee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With a delicious multi-course dinner, entertainment by the BobKat Celtic Trio, an auction and more, an enjoyable evening for all is planned with proceeds going to FACE, or the Foundation for the Advancement of Catholic Education.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FACE provides need-based scholarships to children attending Catholic schools on Cape Cod and throughout the Fall River Diocese.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Boston TV personality Billy Costa, host of WGBH-TV\u2019s High School Quiz Show<\/em>, and NESN\u2019s Dining Playbook<\/em>, will serve as Master of Ceremonies for the Summer Gala, which will begin with a 6 p.m. cocktail reception featuring flutist George Machon and harpist \u201cCy\u201d Cynthia Gordon O\u2019Neill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year\u2019s Gala program will include the inaugural presentation of two awards established in memory of two longtime dedicated supporters of FACE and its predecessor, the St. Mary\u2019s Education Fund. To recognize the \u201ccommendable years of service\u201d offered by each, this year the first annual Sheila Dunne Feitelberg Award and first annual Al Makkay, Sr., Award will be presented to their respective spouses, Joseph H. Feitelberg of Westport and Maureen Makkay of Centerville, and their families.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Going forward, on an annual basis, the Sheila Dunne Feitelberg Award will be presented to honor a volunteer or philanthropist from Cape Cod who has contributed in an extraordinary way to Catholic education. The Al Makkay, Sr., Award will be presented each year to recognize meritorious service of an educator or student from a Catholic school on Cape Cod.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Marstons Mills resident and longtime Summer Gala planning committee member Kelley J. Spodris is serving as chairperson for this year\u2019s event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his letter of invitation, Bishop Edgar M. da Cunha, S.D.V., writes that the FACE Summer Gala is an opportunity for friends \u201cto come together and demonstrate their love and support for Catholic education.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He points out that through the generosity of supporters of FACE, the Fall River Diocese \u201chas been able to provide scholarships to many children who would otherwise not be able to attend a Catholic school,\u201d adding that, \u201cthe need continues to grow.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
