CAMPAIGN CHRONICLES – End of April/Early May 2026:
The Public Launch of the Saint Carlo Acutis Chapel
We are honored to share the next chapter in the St. Thomas Aquinas story: the public launch of the Building on Faith Capital Campaign.
This is the most transformative project in STA’s 60-year history. With a $5 million goal, this bold initiative will shape campus life for decades to come. The cornerstone of this campaign is the new St. Carlo Acutis Chapel, a reverent, sacred space for Mass, prayer, and quiet reflection
Named for the first millennial saint and patron of teenagers, the St. Carlo Acutis Chapel will stand as a visible symbol of our Catholic faith. Alongside the chapel, this project will also deliver a new secure main entrance, campus ministry center, student flex space, and updated administrative offices, creating a welcoming environment for students, families, alumni, and our wider community to gather, connect, and belong.
Thanks to a generous $2.5 million challenge match, your support will have twice the impact, dollar-for-dollar, up to $2.5 million. We have already secured $3.5 million through leadership gifts and a portion of the match.
We are within reach of the finish line. You may give outright today or make a multi-year pledge and pay over time. With your support now, we can unlock the remaining match and achieve our $5 million goal!
This is more than a construction project; it an opportunity to deepen the spiritual life of our school and unite the STA family for generations. Join us in building the heart of STA.
