Campaign Dinner
Campaign Dinners are a special night dedicated to highlighting the progress we’ve made and the vision for the future of LuHi’s campus.
A long tradition of multi-year, comprehensive campaigns has enriched our educational programming and campus environment over decades. Currently, we are in the midst of our Rise.Shine Campaign with the capital goal coming to fruition with the opening of the New Classroom Wing in September 2024.
The LuHi Campaign Dinner in January 2024 honored Paul and Jana Homer with the Pro Deo et Schola (For God and School) award. It was a special occasion celebrating their contributions to Long Island Lutheran Middle School & High School. This prestigious award is given annually to individuals who have demonstrated outstanding service and commitment to both the school and the broader community in alignment with Christian values.Paul and Jana’s longstanding dedication, support, and involvement in the LuHi community have had a profound impact, making them deserving recipients of the Pro Deo et Schola award.
Stay tuned for an update on the next Campaign Event.
Bid-for-Kids Auction Gala
Each fall, over 200 volunteers and donors work together to create a spectacular evening at the Bid-for-Kids Auction Gala. Unique themes transport attendees to interesting places and times where they have the opportunity to bid on hundreds of exciting prize packages. From the silent auction and ticket auction to specialty raffles and the live auction, there’s something for everyone at LuHi’s biggest fundraiser of the year. Bid-for-Kids annually raises over $120,000 for programs and enhancements that directly benefit our students.
The 2024 Bid-for-Kids Auction will be held at the Jericho Terrace in Mineola on Friday, November 15. LuHi is thankful for the generous support from donors, sponsors, and engaged bidders over the years. Join us as we Reach for the Stars at our Bid-For-Kids Auction XL!
