Thank you for supporting the students of Luther High School by attending the 7th annual Big Knight! Please consider bidding generously tonight to support this important cause!

The majority of the proceeds from our event tonight will ensure that more students will continue to have the opportunity to have a Christ-centered education and attend Luther High. Monies raised tonight will go into the Tuition Assistance Fund (which will benefi t students already next school year) and $10,000 will fund digital video equip-ment for the students’ in school use.

How tuition assistance is granted:Tuition assistance requests are submitted to an agency called FACTS Grant and Aid Assessment Service

FACTS submits an assessment to Luther High

A tuition assistance committee at Luther awards fi nancial grants based on the infor-mation supplied by FACTS and the applicants

Special consideration is given to cases of exceptional need

The Tuition Assistance Fund is funded by gifts from The Big Knight, The Good Steward Store, The Friends of Luther & individual people

All applications are kept in strict confi dence

L18: FUND A STUDENTSome of you may have come tonight for a great meal. Some came to see old friends and some of you came in hopes of getting a specifi c auction item. Those things aside, everyone here has come together tonight for a common goal...to support the students of Luther High. This is your op-portunity to do so...

We introduced our “Fund A Student” at The Big Knight last year and the response was both heartwarming & over-whelming! Our guests opened their hearts to the students

of Luther High School and generously gave while receiving nothing in return. In aproximately 5 minutes, $8,000 was raised. This year, we have an anonymous donor that is MATCHING up to $10,000 for our “Fund A Student”. What a blessing! Our goal is to reach at least $10,000 this year so we can double that to $20,000. Thank you for your help and support to reach this goal!

We appreciate you!We appreciate you!
