Light brings hope, it brings knowledge, and it brings the opportunity for us to grow closer to Christ and each other. Illumination is a way for us to celebrate all the ways we have grown as a community of faith, hope, and love. Illumination is the main fundraiser for both Immaculate Heart of Mary parish and school. The success of this campaign "illuminates" our path forward in the community.

The funds raised allow us to: maintain and improve our facilities, support the salaries of our entire staff including teachers, continue our faith programming and youth activities, and support community outreach efforts, such as Boulevard Place Food Pantry. In addition, Illumination also funds specific projects.  This year our goal is for an update to the kitchen in the parish activity center and additional campus lighting.  The kitchen project update will replace outdated equipment, upgrade finishes and casework, provide better storage opportunities, and address security and safety protocols for various program needs.  This is a space used by parishioners during IHM events, Athletic Commission, IHM School Staff & Volunteers, and community members during a variety of gatherings.  The lighting project will complete the second phase of three total phases to provide lighting around the interior perimeter of campus and on the playground / turf area, while providing better safety for programs and events that take place at night - Oktoberfest, kickball games that go into the evening, etc. This enhanced lighting will help augment the ability for security cameras to discern unwanted activities that take place after hours.

Celebrating our light is important for our community and our future. Your support is critical to sustaining the vibrant IHM community that so many have worked hard to foster over the years!
