## Resource

St. Augustine’s College Alumni Association just poured over $35,000 into scholarships and tuition aid for students in grades 7–12, including special awards and a major engineering scholarship—proving education shouldn’t be blocked by money. After skipping their annual gala to fund the school’s 80th anniversary, they rallied alumni instead, who responded with overwhelming generosity—many giving far beyond the $1,000 ask. A standout donor, Douglas Hanna overseas, funded a $5,000 engineering scholarship for Tinae Barry and gifted five engineering seniors new MacBooks. The president reminded everyone: every gift, big or small, changes lives—and encourages graduates to pay it forward, keeping the school’s mission alive.
