PHONATHON <strong>2012</strong><br />
THANK YOU!<br />
Twenty-three enthusiastic Meteors gathered in March to make more than 4,500 phone calls over an<br />
eight-day period for <strong>De</strong> <strong>La</strong> <strong>Salle</strong> <strong>Institute</strong>’s <strong>2012</strong> Phonathon. Alumni and friends from across the<br />
country responded generously when asked to support the student financial assistance program. <strong>De</strong><br />
<strong>La</strong> <strong>Salle</strong> students raised more than $38,000 in outright gifts and pledge commitments through the<br />
generosity of many who share in our <strong>La</strong>sallian mission of education.<br />
The Meteors who participated in the <strong>2012</strong> Phonathon were: Ashley Andaverde ‘12, Romero Board<br />
‘12, Joshua Boddie ‘13, Ben Colletti ‘15, Gabino Coss ‘15, Marissa <strong>De</strong>Carlo ‘12, <strong>La</strong>uren Dilger ‘12,<br />
Dolores Duran ‘12, Ryan Flynn ‘13, Caterina Hernandez ‘12, Kristin Joyce ‘12, Jared Luna ‘15,<br />
Michael Nowak ‘15, Horace Nowell III ‘15, Jeremy O’Brien ‘12, Vinicio Ovalle ‘12, Erica Parrilli<br />
‘12, <strong>La</strong>uren Rubio ‘12, Tyler Senjanin ‘13, Jamon Thomas ‘15, Ricardo Torres ‘13, Bridget White<br />
‘12 and Kevin Wilson ‘12. These student-callers did an outstanding job for a very important cause.<br />
Participating in the Phonathon is a great experience for <strong>De</strong> <strong>La</strong> <strong>Salle</strong> students. As future alumni, they<br />
have the opportunity to get acquainted with alumni and friends of the <strong>Institute</strong>, share information<br />
about the school’s most recent accomplishments, raise much-needed dollars for student financial aid<br />
and discover what being a Meteor is really all about.<br />
We congratulate our student-callers for their determined efforts and thank all of you who answered<br />
the call for support of our Meteors!<br />
