A Remarkable Night!

2025 Extravaganza Raises Over $600,000!

Thanks to the incredible generosity of our Saint Thomas Aquinas community, the 2025 Saints Earthbound Faith & Skyward Dreams Extravaganza was an outstanding success, raising over $600,000! These funds will directly support nearly 900 students, helping them excel academically and take full advantage of the wide range of extracurricular opportunities available “after the bell.”

A heartfelt thank you goes to our general chairs, Michelle & Scott Hardgree, '96  and Kelli & Patrick Daly, for their leadership and dedication in making this event truly unforgettable. Your support helps ensure that our students continue to grow in faith, leadership, and excellence.

We also invite you to participate in our ongoing Fund A Need campaign for Legacy Hall. This transformative project will create a permanent space celebrating the generations of Saints who have shaped our school, while inspiring and empowering the students of today and tomorrow. Together, we carry the legacy forward, every contribution, large or small, makes a meaningful impact.

Thank you to the whole PB&J Catering Family!

2025 Fund A Need - Legacy Hall

Legacy Hall will be a permanent tribute to the generations of Saints who have shaped Saint Thomas Aquinas High School through faith, leadership, and excellence. This inspiring space will celebrate the legacy of our alumni, faculty, and families who have carried forward the Aquinas mission. Educating young men and women to be Catholic leaders who use their gifts to become Saints.

Your generosity through the 2025 Fund A Need will help bring Legacy Hall to life. Transforming a central corridor on campus into a visual story of who we are as a Saints community. From championship highlights and service milestones to faith-filled traditions, Legacy Hall will serve as a daily reminder to current and future Saints of the foundation they stand on and the limitless sky of possibilities ahead.

Together, we build Legacy Hall. Together, we carry the legacy forward.

Every gift, no matter the size, plays a vital role in preserving our history and inspiring the next generation.
