why i give
erica mcreynolds ’97 | Tax Attorney
La Salle Activities: Swim Team, Campus Ministry, Student Government
“I give to La Salle because I have great memories of my time there. I believe La Salle accomplishes important
objectives in addition to providing a great high school education. La Salle also instills a sense of community
and social justice in its students. I am grateful for the education I received and for my family’s
ability to provide a Lasallian experience for me. My donation makes it possible for others to benefit from
a La Salle Academy education.”
lucille furia, grandmother ’16 | Retired Elementary School Principal and Principal Support Coach
“I am very impressed by the fact that the academic offerings are many, varied and rigorous. The La Salle Mission is modeled by the
faculty and staff with emphasis on one’s faith. These hallmarks are especially needed during these times and offer a core of values
to sustain our students for college and life. My hope is that my granddaughter and her school mates will bring their intelligence
and faith to helping others to better the world they will inherit.”
lou boschetti ’78 | Sales Manager | La Salle Activities: Homecoming Committee
“Attending La Salle was one of the greatest experiences of my life. It was the foundation of my success and the school had a profound
influence on me. The education I received and life lessons learned from the Christian Brothers at La Salle will stay with me
forever. Many of my classmates are lifelong friends. You don’t just get an education at La Salle, you become part of the history and
tradition that bond you to this great institution. That is why I give to La Salle. So that future generations of students can carry on
the ideals of our great school.”
kenneth and barbara disaia, parents ’16, ’18
University Administration
“We could not be more pleased with the education our two daughters received
through the PEGASUS 7/8 program and now during their high school years. The faculty
and administration of La Salle have always demonstrated that their number one
priority is the students and the quality of education they receive. We believe this
foundation will prepare our daughters for a lifetime of happiness and success. La
Salle Academy will always have a special place in our family’s heart and we will continue
to support the mission of the Academy.”
