History of Our Annual Giving Fund

Every fall, Saint Thomas Aquinas High School launches its Annual Giving program with a campaign. This initiative seeks unrestricted funds to provide immediate support for academics, financial aid, faculty enrichment, athletics, performing and visual arts, and more. This campaign was first called the Blue & Gold Fund, in 2017 the name changed to the Saints Annual Appeal (SAA). Starting the Fall of 2023, the fund has been restructured to better serve the needs of our students and families and is now called the, Saints Community Fund.
