Named Scholarships that are endowed last forever, helping offset tuition costs for families seeking an Aquinas education. This Giving Day, let your heart lead you - establish an endowed Scholarship today!
Named (Sponsored) Scholarships are a means to honor a loved one or a beloved faculty/staff member or administrator by offering need-based tuition assistance or merit-based scholarships to current students. The principal balance of each endowed Named Scholarship is held in perpetuity (lasting forever) and spent following guidelines set up by the donor and approved by the Saint Thomas Aquinas Board of Trustees.
This Giving Day, on April 21st, let your heart lead you. Every gift to our Endowment helps families provide their child a Catholic education at Aquinas - rooted in virtue, enriched in learning and enveloped in a faith-filled community.
