The flagship fundraising event for Bellarmine Preparatory School, the annual Bellarmine Gala is vital in supporting the school’s Tuition Assistance Program. Over the past six years, this event has raised an impressive $5.3 million, including a record $1.1 million in both 2024 and 2025. 

For the 2025-26 academic year, the Tuition Assistance Program will provide $3.1 million in aid to 45% of our students, helping us ensure that a Bellarmine education remains accessible to all. Guided by our Catholic, Jesuit mission, Bellarmine offers an exceptional holistic and transformative educational experience. Thank you for joining us in this important mission through your generous support of the Bellarmine Gala.
