THANK YOU FROM ST. MARY ACADEMY

Thank you to all who purchased a ticket(s) last year!  This fundraiser is very important to our school and the general operating budget.  Thank you all for your participation and for your continued support!  The generous spirit within the Diocese of Venice has been incredible!  We had a person win $5,000.00 but we know that all of our St. Mary Academy students are the ultimate winners!
