In order to make up the difference between the cost of a Bishop LeBlond education and the tuition ($4,300 for the 2008-2009 school year), Bishop LeBlond holds many fund raising activities and events. The support of the alumni, Bishop LeBlond and St Joseph communities make these events successful and make quality Catholic high school education possible.

Night of Golden Stars
Bishop LeBlond’s premier fund raising event, Night of Golden Stars, will be held November 8, 2008, at Bishop LeBlond in Grace Gymnasium. Gifts items of any type, size, and dollar value are greatly appreciated. If you own a business, please consider offering a service, a gift certificate, a product or a cash donation. The $100 per person 2006 fund raiser raised more than $102,000, for the school's general operations.

NFL Raffle
Through this program, individuals can purchase a raffle ticket for $20 for the entire 17-week NFL football season. Each ticket carries 17 different three team combinations for each week of the season. Cash prizes of $1,100 are awarded each of the 17 weeks to individuals with the highest and lowest combined weekly scores. A total of $18,700 is given away over the 17-week period. Tickets are available at Bishop LeBlond.

Golf Tournament
The 3-man scramble is held the Friday of Memorial weekend at Fairview Golf Course in St Joseph. This year the date is May 22. The $75 fee includes prizes, lunch and refreshments, and a hole-in-one opportunity to win a new car. This year we are soliciting $100 hole sponsors.

Carnival
The 37th carnival will be held on September 19, 20, and 21, 2008. The event features rides and a PTO food booth. Pre-carnival tickets are a considerable savings over tickets purchased at the carnival. Pre-carnival tickets may be purchased from any Bishop LeBlond student, and are redeemable for carnival rides and food booth items. Pre-carnival tickets will be available in mid August.
