PCA to Host Sapphire Gala Celebrating 45 Years of Faithful Education

Dover, NH – [September 20, 2024] – Portsmouth Christian Academy (PCA)announces its Sapphire Gala, a special event honoring 45 years of dedicated service in Christian education in Dover and beyond. The Gala will take place on Saturday, September 28 at Portsmouth Christian Academy’s Troiano Hall, where parents, donors, and community members will come together to celebrate PCA’s legacy and future.

This year’s Gala theme, “A Celebration of Faithfulness,” reflects PCA’s commitment to providing exceptional educational opportunities for students while advancing the school’s mission of joyfully inspiring students to maximize their God-given potential. Attendees will enjoy an evening of merriment and philanthropy to include a “mocktail hour,” a gourmet dinner prepared by Simply Elegant Catering, and live entertainment by the school’s very own talented student musicians, and keynote address by Bob Strodel, Director Emeritus of Christian Camps and Conferences Inc.

“We are excited to celebrate our 45th anniversary with our community,” said Elaina Russo, Director of Development at PCA. “The Sapphire Gala is not just a fundraising event; it’s an opportunity for us to reflect on our past, celebrate our present, and look forward to the future of PCA. We invite everyone to join us in this meaningful evening.”

Guests are encouraged to wear sapphire-themed attire to signify the attributes of faithfulness associated with this precious stone. The Gala will also include opportunities for attendees to connect with fellow supporters and learn about PCA’s vision for the future, including the planned acquisition of the second Hope Hill parcel and the new envisioned Lower School Eagles’ Nest Playground.

“Together, we can shape the landscape of our school both literally and figuratively and cultivate an environment where young minds can thrive,” added Russo. “We look forward to sharing updates on how donor investments are making a difference in the lives of our students.”
