Nearly 500 parents, alums, and other community members gathered for the V.J. & Angela Sku� Catholic High School annual fundraiser, Angel Flight, on Saturday, Sept. 19 , held at the school. This year’s event, themed Passport to the World, raised more than $300,000, ensuring that general opera� ng expenses are met, while s� ll supplemen� ng the school’s fi nancial aid program and technology fund. The evening began with cocktails and a silent auc� on at 5:30 p.m., followed by dinner and a live auc� on at 7:30 p.m. General chairs for this year’s event were Sku� Catholic parents Kevin and Denise Bartels and Kevin and Shari Munro. “We’re really excited by the overwhelming support from our Sku� Catholic parents, alumni and the Omaha community,” says Denise Bartels. “Even with the economic recession, we had an outpouring of support for the fundraiser and had a very successful event.” New to the event was the recogni� on of an outstanding alum, honoring a graduate that has achieved dis� nc� on in his/her endeavors. John A. Fredrickson from the class of 2005 was named as the 2009 Outstanding Alumni. (See separate ar� cle.) Angel Flight General Chairs Kevin and Shari Munro & Denise and Kevin Bartels The school was once again transformed, by the incredible vision and eff orts of the Angel Flight decora� ons commi� ee. Guest enjoyed the look and feel of a street market during the Silent Auc� on, before being escorted into an Indian-themed castle in the main gym for dinner from Brandeis Catering, and the Live Auc� on. SC students assisted with a variety of aspects that evening. They served as valet parkers, modeled jewelry, acted as tour guides, sold special raffl e � ckets, manned the market store, served as wait staff and auc� on runners, performed a Moroccan–styled trumpet fanfare to kick-off the dinner presenta� on, helped guests load the cars at the end of the evening with purchased auc� on items, and showed up the following day to assist with clean-up ac� vi� es.

Seventeen special alums were nominated by friends, family, and peers as outstanding graduates who have achieved dis� nc� on in their endeavors. (See name of nominees listed below.) These young people promote the values of Sku� Catholic, and serve as an inspira� on to others. Although each nominee’s story is remarkable in its own right, one young man’s accomplishments reached a “world” scale. A� er John Fredrickson graduated from Sku� Catholic in May of 2005, he moved to New York City to a� end New York University's Silver School of Social Work. During his sophomore year of studies, John studied abroad in the west African na� on of Ghana. While there, he interned at the West Africa AIDS Founda� on, assis� ng in a poster compe� � on at local schools to help reduce s� gmas associated with HIV/AIDS. Upon comple� on of his studies, John extended his stay in Ghana to help pilot a high school program in the annual Pan African Film Fes� val, which highlights documentary fi lms made by Africans throughout the world. He returned to NYC that fall to con� nue his studies. A� er his junior year, he returned to Africa, but this � me to the east African na� on of Tanzania, where he interned at an interna� onal street children's home. While in Tanzania, he advocated for and helped coordinate an ini� a� ve to have all of the children within the organiza� on tested for HIV. By the end of the summer, every single orphan within the organiza� on had been tested. Upon John’s return to NYC, he secured an internship at Harlem United, a community-based HIV/AIDS agency. He interned there for the remainder of his � me at NYU, and was hired by the agency upon his gradua� on in May 2009. He was selected by NYU to represent the gradua� ng Social Work class on stage at the NYU commencement, where he received his Bachelor’s of Science alongside Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. Today, John is a Columbia University graduate student, where he is pursuing a Master’s of Science in Advanced Clinical Social Work. Sku� Catholic congratulates John A. Fredrickson, Class of 2005, as the 2009 Outstanding Alumni Award winner. John’s parents are Allen and Marilee Fredrickson.
