Giving
Make an Aquinas education accessible to all
The Guardian Fund
Every year, the Guardian Fund bridges the gap between the actual cost of an Aquinas Classical Academy education and what families can afford. This year, our goal is to raise $295,000 to ensure that every student who desires a faithful, classical education in the Catholic tradition can receive one — regardless of financial circumstances. Your generosity directly supports scholarships, tuition assistance, and the daily life of the Academy.
A donation of $9,800 for one year would provide one student a full scholarship for one year. Or, consider a pledge of $9,800 a year for four years to fully fund one student’s scholarship for 9th–12th grades.

Sam Morson Scholarship Fund
Sam Morson was 18 years old when he died shortly after a car accident in June 2021. He had just finished his freshman year at Thomas Aquinas College in California.
In honor of their son, the Sam Morson Scholarship Fund has been created by his family in the hope of bringing good fruit out of a sorrowful tragedy.
As strong supporters of Catholic classical education, the Morson family wishes to assist more students in attending Aquinas Classical Academy. All remembrances made in Sam’s name will be used to help provide a faith-filled, joy-filled Catholic classical education.
Thank you for considering honoring Sam with a donation. May God bless Sam and the entire Morson family now and in eternity.
