THE AQUINAS FUND

Donate Today

Our 2025-26 school year annual appeal, The Aquinas Fund, is underway. Please return the charitable giving form (pdf) or you may make a gift online. Please consider  making your gift by our June 30th fiscal year end. Thank you for helping us 'Hit the Mark' with this year's Aquinas Fund. 

Aquinas Families, Alumni, Business Community, & Friends,

​

​Each school year at Aquinas begins with a sense of excitement and purpose—and this year is no exception. Our classrooms are full, our students are thriving, and our faith-centered mission continues to guide every lesson, every activity, and every act of service. These blessings are made possible because of you. Your generosity to the Aquinas Fund sustains our growth, strengthens our programs, and ensures that every
student has the opportunity to learn, lead, and live with faith.

 

The Aquinas Fund remains the cornerstone of our annual giving efforts, directly enhancing the educational experience for both students and faculty. Your gift strengthens academic programs, expands extracurricular opportunities, and maintains facilities that inspire learning and faith formation. Through your investment, you uphold the pillars that make our community strong, vibrant, and accessible to families across the Coulee Region.
 

Your support empowers every Aquinas Catholic Schools student—from our youngest learners to our soon-to-be graduates—to thrive in faith and learning. In our elementary schools, your generosity fuels literacy and math initiatives that build essential skills, enhances access to technology and hands-on STEM experiences, and deepens faith formation that helps students grow in character and confidence.
 

At Aquinas Middle and High Schools, your investment opens doors for students to excel through advanced coursework, the arts, athletics, and leadership opportunities that prepare them to live their faith beyond the classroom. Every gift to the Aquinas Fund directly shapes student outcomes—helping young people discover their God-given talents and preparing them to succeed in college, career, and life.


Your continued support also strengthens the dedicated educators who bring our mission to life each day. By helping us attract and retain exceptional teachers and staff, you ensure that our students learn from mentors who inspire curiosity, perseverance, and faith. Together, we are building a community where every student can reach their fullest potential—spiritually, academically, and personally.


Your generosity also helps keep Catholic education accessible and affordable for
all families who seek it. In today’s world, the need for faith-based education has
never been greater. With your help, we can continue welcoming families from
all backgrounds and forming students who will lead lives marked by service,
compassion, and faith.

​

Please accept our invitation to participate in this year’s Aquinas Fund. Your support makes an extraordinary difference in the lives of our students, faculty, and families. Will you prayerfully consider making a gift this year to help us continue building upon
our legacy of excellence?


On behalf of the entire Aquinas Catholic Schools community, thank you for your steadfast faith in our mission. I invite you to stop by Aquinas for a visit. May God bless you abundantly for your generosity and commitment to Catholic education.
 

With deepest gratitude,
 

Ted Knutson ’80

What is the Aquinas Fund?

The Aquinas Fund is the annual fundraising effort of Aquinas Catholic Schools to support the immediate needs of our schools.  Like most parochial schools, tuition and parish support only cover a portion of the overall cost of educating each student who benefits from an exceptional learning experience.  Your annual unrestricted gift to the Aquinas Fund goes to work immediately to enhance the classroom experience for students and staff at all five Aquinas Catholic Schools buildings.

To learn more about the impact of your Annual Fund gift, contact Brad Reinhart, Director of Development at 608.784.0707. Click here to download a copy of the reply card to fill out and mail in with your gift.  The fiscal year for Aquinas Catholic Schools runs from July 1, 2025 through June 30, 2026.

​

The Aquinas Fund, our annual campaign, will begin each fall with outreach to the local business community seeking their support of operations at ACS.  The strength of our business community is paired with the wide reach and generosity of our alumni, current and past parents, private foundations, and friends of Aquinas to provide for the needs of our students and staff.  We would like to thank these members of the Blugold Business Network for their faithful support of the annual Aquinas Fund.
