The St. Peter Chanel Foundation is calling on alumni to reconnect and support two incredible initiatives that continue to honor the school’s legacy.

58th Annual Cerebral Palsy Christmas Party

A tradition since 1967, the Annual Cerebral Palsy Christmas Party is a heartwarming event that brings joy to over 100 children with cerebral palsy and other illnesses. This year’s celebration will be held on Sunday, December 8, 2024, at Padua Franciscan High School, featuring personalized gifts, lunch, face painting, balloon artistry, and live music.

The event is funded by donations from Chanel alumni and friends. To learn more about supporting or volunteering, visit the Christmas Party Donation Page or the CP Party Volunteer Registration Page.
