this night could not have happened without help from MANY and

we are grateful to all of you and for all of you!

Thank you for supporting the students of Luther High School by attending the 8th 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 a digital sound board.

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

TADS submits an assessment to Luther High.

A tuition assistance committee at Luther awards fi nancial grants based on the infor-mation supplied by TADS 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.

Tuition assistance applications are submitted on an annual basis.

L16: 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 two years ago and the response was both heartwarming & overwhelming! 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 in 2014 & $25,000 was raised in 2015! What a blessing! Thank you for your generous support!

We appreciate you!We appreciate you!
