Gauracandra Posted March 31, 2003 Report Share Posted March 31, 2003 Catholic School Finds Creative Way to Raise Money Meanwhile, a Catholic elementary school in Los Angeles found its own way to deal with budget deficits. Hoping to raise more money than the regular Friday fish fry, St. Michael's Elementary decided to try its luck at the track. About 100 people contributed $25 each toward making a bet at Santa Anita. The gamble paid off. They picked six winning horses and won nearly $200,000. Sister Mary Catherine Antczak says she and the other nuns prayed for a good day at the races and their prayers were answered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
