Advisory Committee

Cristo Rey's Advisory Committee is made of New York area professionals whose mission is to advance the vision of the Board of Trustees to make college preparatory education a reality for our students. Advisory Committee members leverage their professional and social networks to increase awareness of our school. 

​

The signature Advisory Committee event is the Magic of Cristo Rey, held each May. The event features a silent and live auction, food, cocktails and fun!
