Mr. Gilbert L. Saenz, Antonian Principal, announces the donation of $10,000.00 to St. Leo The Great Catholic School. The Student Leadership Council of Antonian embraced a school-wide goal of providing assistance to the Catholic Schools in Southside of the Archdiocese. St. Leo The Great School was selected as the first recipient of this donation and it will be used to help fund tuition for its students.

During the first semester students at Antonian sold t-shirts in an effort to raise this money. The Administration, Faculty and Staff appreciate the efforts of our students and thank them for their generous understanding of the beatitudes.

During the 2005-2006 school year, students raised $18,000.00 to assist children in Africa. The money was donated to the Children in Need Foundation who in turn handed the money to a group of nuns in Africa who sponsored a school for 1200 students. With the money donated by students the children were able to eat a minimum of one meal a day and provide for the upkeep of the school.

In previous years is raised $10,000.00 twice to assist the students of St. Mary's on the River walk and assisted St. gerard's High School also.
