Introducing our 2026 Gala Honorary Chairs
Matt and Heather Bliss

Bellarmine is excited to announce Matt and Heather Bliss as the Honorary Chairs for the 2026 Bellarmine Gala! As dedicated parents to their sons, Patrick B’26 and Christopher B’28, Matt and Heather demonstrate a passionate commitment to everything they undertake. Both are proud graduates of Gonzaga Prep, Class of 1993, and they truly understand the value of a Catholic, Jesuit education. Their steadfast support for Bellarmine over the years—highlighted by Heather’s law firm, Bliss Family Law Group, being a valued Business Partner for the past two years—reflects their dedication.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Matt and Heather for accepting this important leadership role. We look forward to partnering with you for the Gala on February 28th, where our wonderful community will come together to Empower Possibilities!
