Tombola 2021
The Annual Fr. Dorta- Duque, SJ Memorial Tombola is one of the greatest events of the year. For three days, our campus comes alive with the presence of students, faculty, staff, parents, and alumni. Even prospective students and their families grace our grounds enjoying the extraordinary atmosphere generated by a tradition that goes back over 100 years.
As you know, because of the ongoing challenges presented by the pandemic, we made the decision to postpone Tombola for two months hoping the situation would improve. While things have definitely gotten better, we feel that circumstances still prevent us from having an event as large as Tombola on campus. Maintaining the health of our Belen community is the utmost priority and having studied various options ultimately led us to the unfortunate decision.
Tombola raffle tickets will be distributed the week of March 22 via the FLEX teachers. As a reminder, no payment is due with these tickets. We ask you to return the completed raffle ticket stubs by Friday, April 16 to the school office.
On Sunday, April 18 at 11:00 a.m. Fr. Willie '87 will celebrate a virtual Mass, followed by a special announcement LIVE on our YouTube channel. "I not only have something special to share with all of you, but I will also be doing the raffle drawing and announcing the winners," said Fr. Willie.

Belen Jesuit Preparatory School was founded in 1854 in Havana, Cuba by Queen Isabel II of Spain. The task of educating students was assigned to the priests and brothers of the Society of Jesus (the Jesuits), whose teaching tradition is synonymous with academic excellence and spiritual discipline. In 1961, the new political regime of Cuba confiscated the School property and expelled the Jesuit faculty. The School was re-established in Miami the same year, and over the next decade, continued to grow. Today, Belen Jesuit sits on a 30-acre site in western Dade County, only minutes away from downtown Miami.
