My dear friends,

You can't see it in the photo but I have a tin cup sitting by my right foot. It is for the $2 (two dollar monthly pledges) we are asking our supporters and fellow Augustinians to finance  our school year 2012 scholars.

We are relying on your sense of generosity, your deep desire to help these bright and promising sixth graders who come from very poor families in our community of Tagudin get a good high school education at SAS.

We all know that charity and altruism do not totally and solely belong to the province of the wealthy. Time and again we have seen our poor brethren come to the aid of those who don't have any. Yes, a $5 dollar bill here, a $10 dollar bill there - why even a $20 dollar bill that has lost its way to the casino would come in very handy.

And please help us by spreading the word to all your friends and contacts. We are not asking for much. More importantly we are asking for your volunteered financial support. Let it come from your heart. Let us help these bright kids make something out of their lives. Education, after all, is freedom. Be a freedom fighter. Help us with our mission. God bless you.
