Crozier Gala

This years’ Crozier Gala took place on April 21st at the Camelback Inn of Scottsdale.

Bishop Thomas J. Olmsted and over 650 guests enjoyed an evening of prayer, merriment, and fine cuisine. Derrick Hall (President of the Diamondbacks) served as Master of Ceremonies followed by a lively musical performance by Grammy award winners Marilyn McCoo and Billy Davis Jr.

Established in 1989, the Crozier Gala is the premier fundraising event of the Catholic Community Foundation. Proceeds from the evening support the Foundation in its mission “to carry out the work of Christ by fostering philanthropy”; and funds grants and awards in support of education, communication, faith formation, and services to the poor in the Diocese of Phoenix.

Guaranteed to be an event you won't want to miss, the 2008 Crozier Gala, in which Colleen Will of Paradise Valley will serve as Chairman, marks the 25th anniversary of the Catholic Community Foundation and the 20th anniversary of the Gala.
