At The Collage Companies we are invested in building projects that strengthen the foundation and fabric of our community. We are pleased to be a community sponsor for Holy Cross Lutheran Academy (HCLA) in Sanford, Florida – CRUSADER GALA on April 26th. The Crusader Gala stands as a celebration of what is possible when faith, education, and community come together. It is a beacon of hope and a promise of continued excellence in Christian education within Seminole County and beyond. Brian Walsh, Founder, Chairman and CEO for Collage shared a message of gratitude and encouragement to all contributing to the Academy’s vision. Also in attendance was Gary Vargas, Director of Church and Community Development and Giuseppe Vicari, Assistant Project Manager.


We are actively engaged in an innovative expansion project for HCLA. Aimed at enhancing the educational landscape in the northwest corner of Seminole County, this expansion includes advanced classroom spaces and a pioneering STEAM Lab. The addition is expected to accommodate an additional 100 students, marking a significant phase of growth for HCLA. Gary Vargas, Director of Church and Community Development at The Collage Companies, reflected on the partnership, stating, “Supporting the Crusader Gala is more than a gesture of sponsorship; it’s a declaration of our shared commitment with Holy Cross Lutheran Academy to nurturing the minds and spirits of the next generation. Our engagement in this project and event is a reflection of our belief in the power of education and faith to transform communities.”
