At La Salle College High School, tradition is more than just a reflection of the past, it is the foundation upon which we build our future.
The De La Salle Annual Fund ensures that our legacy of academic excellence, leadership, and service continues to inspire generations to come. Rooted in the principles of St. John Baptist de La Salle, our school remains committed to educating the hearts and minds of young men who will go forth to make a difference in the world.
LET US REMEMBER the generations of La Salle students who have walked these halls, challenged themselves in the classroom, competed on the field, performed on the stage, and grown in faith and character. The support of alumni has played a vital role in keeping our traditions alive. Today, we continue to honor this legacy by investing in our students, ensuring they receive the resources, experiences, and opportunities to thrive.
LET US INSPIRE the next generation to carry the torch of La Salle forward. Your contribution to the De La Salle Annual Fund not only preserves the past but also paves the way for tomorrow’s leaders, innovators, and compassionate citizens. Together, we are connecting the rich tradition of La Salle with the promise of the future, empowering students to leave their mark on the world.
Join us in building a future inspired by our past, grounded in tradition, and focused on tomorrow. Every gift to the De La Salle Annual Fund makes an impact — let us continue to inspire greatness together.
Connecting Tradition with Tomorrow.
Through your support, we blend La Salle College High School’s cherished traditions with the opportunities of the future, paving the way for each new generation to build on our legacy.
LOYAL SONS WE’LL EVER BE . . .
“It is important to me to support areas that differentiate our alma mater today in a very competitive environment. I believe that substantial need and merit-based financial assistance, superior faculty and administration, strong yet innovative curriculum, and first-rate arts, athletics, and student life facilities are among these strengths.”
MICHAEL A. MAREK ’80
“My time at La Salle gave me a good foundation to move through life. I hope that students who may not normally have the opportunity to attend La Salle have a chance to that same experience.”
AHAMEFULA A. AMACHI ’88
“While young men ‘Enter to Learn’ at La Salle, it is so much more than just a school: it’s a brotherhood. And I feel a continued and compelling sense of duty to keep giving so that future Lasallians can experience just how true that is.”

“From the incredible education, to the numerous extracurricular activities, to the solid Christian values that are instilled, to the lifelong friendships that are made while at La Salle... I know donating yearly will not only help young men while attending La Salle but will also benefit them throughout their adult lives.”
