Be A Sponsor

We would like to take this opportunity to invite you to become a sponsor for BenFest, an annual summer festival held this year on July 13 and 14 in the courtyard of St. Benedict Parish and School.  BenFest, a popular and growing community event attended by more than 2,500 people last year, is a great opportunity to expose your business to a thriving North Center neighborhood and community.

The proceeds from BenFest will help defray the cost of repairing damage caused to our bell tower and other buildings and allow us to continue to offer new and innovative programs in our Elementary and High Schools.

The attached forms will tell you more about sponsorship opportunities as well as how to enter our raffle for a chance to win $10,000.  In addition to cash sponsorships, we are also in need of in-kind donations including: gifts for the raffle, airline tickets, hotel packages, tents, tables, and printing services.

Finally, we would like to invite you to come join us for fun, food, and entertainment for all ages on July 13 and 14.  Bring along your friends and family and enjoy the celebration.

When an entire square block is devoted to serving our neighborhood, there is always something that needs tending to, so we thank you for consideration in supporting BenFest.  If you should have any questions, please contact Bill Hayes at (312) 659-2725 or the rectory at (773) 588-6484 or email BenFest@stbenedict.com.
