Twice per year, the religious nonprofit helps parochial schools with everything from new technology labs to infrastructure improvements. To date, the organization has given away $126 million in its 55 years, including $18.3 million in 2016 alone.

Funds for St. Bernard will help the families who can’t afford the $5,800-$7,000 annual tuition. St. Thomas Aquinas will use the funds to replace a parking lot.
