Illumination | Immaculate Heart of Mary Parish

Light brings hope, it brings knowledge, and it brings the opportunity for us to grow closer to Christ and each other. Illumination is a way for us to celebrate all the ways we have grown as a community of faith, hope, and love. Illumination is the main fundraiser for both Immaculate Heart of Mary parish and school. The success of this campaign “illuminates” our path forward in the community. The funds raised allow us to: maintain and improve our facilities, support the salaries of our entire staff including teachers, continue our faith programming and youth activities, and support community outreach efforts, such as Boulevard Place Food Pantry. In addition, Illumination also funds specific projects. This year our fund-a-need goal is to raise $25,000 to upgrade and add exterior lighting around the church and school.

Celebrating our light is important for our community and our future. Your support is critical to sustaining the vibrant IHM community that so many have worked hard to foster over the years!
