Drexel Prep Foundation's Mardi Gras Masquerade Committee
The Drexel Prep Foundation's (DPF) mission is to continue the legacy of Saint Katharine Drexel's support of St. Katharine Drexel Prep School (formerly Xavier Prep). DPF, a non-profit born in the aftermath of the threatened closure of Xavier Prep, is the brainchild of several prep Alumni & Friends of Prep. Motivated by the need to keep the Drexel Dream alive, we continue our work as a Thank You for the gifts the Prep gave us and on behalf of all future Preppers & their contributions as leaders in our great communit. DPF writes grants, hosts fundraisers & events, and community service projects throughout the Greater New Orleans area.
