On behalf of the Marist Brothers, administration, Stanner Alumni Center, faculty, staff, and the students we serve at Molloy, THANK YOU<\/strong> to everyone who supported Molloy on #GivingTuesday and every day! Giving Tuesday is an international day of charitable giving celebrated annually on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving. After a weekend that has evolved into a shopping extravaganza in recent decades, Giving Tuesday serves as a timely reminder that we must stop, reflect, and consider giving to charitable causes we believe in.<\/p>\n

This Giving Tuesday, Stanners and friends donated over $13,000<\/strong> in support of the Fund For Molloy. By supporting the Fund For Molloy, you directly enhance our programs and physical campus, in turn creating opportunities for present and future Stanners. In the past decade, the support of the Stanner community has enhanced Molloy\u2019s capacity to provide scholarships and needs assistance from 150 to 300 students. This inspiring progress would not be possible without the support of all in our Stanner family. Together, we are helping more students attend Molloy and receive the gift of education. With YOUR stewardship, Molloy remains one of the most AFFORDABLE<\/strong> and ACCESSIBLE<\/strong> Catholic college preparatory high schools in the New York metro area.<\/p>\n

The lesson of service to others, taught to us by the Marist Brothers and our dedicated faculty, is affirmed by the time, talents, and treasure you provide to inspire our students to give back and help the neediest. During the Christmas season we conduct our annual coat and food drives, which help a number of charities. While this is a symbolic time to give thanks for what we receive, we are always mindful of God\u2019s blessings. Our service to others does not end when the holidays do. So many of our students and faculty participate in service programs that operate throughout the year, serving communities of need locally, nationally, and internationally. We are able to do more for others because of what you do for Molloy.<\/p>\n

We have received a number of questions regarding the last day one can make their year-end gift. You can still make a gift to Molloy any time this Christmas season. Gifts made by 11:59PM on December 31st are tax-deductible on your next tax return.<\/em><\/p>\n

Thank you for all you have done and continue to do to strengthen our Marist Mission. We thank all of you whom have ever made a gift to Molloy. Every gift matters. Every gift has a positive impact.<\/p>\n

Over 100 Alumni & Friends Come Home for Thanksgiving<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Molloy welcomed over 100 alumni, family members, and friends on November 21st in celebration of our annual Thanksgiving Liturgy. The liturgy was organized by Campus Ministry and celebrated by Fr. Chris Heanue<\/strong> of Holy Child Jesus Parish, while the theme was created by the Liturgy Committee. In the days leading up to the Mass, students in the committee painted a large, colorful wall mural that was hung behind the altar. The mural symbolized the diversity of Molloy\u2019s students and families.<\/p>\n

Later, all visiting guests were invited to a light reception featuring chocolate chip cookies and hot chocolate. As is tradition, returning alumni had the opportunity to reconnect with their friends and former teachers. It was great to hear your college updates! In all, it was a wonderful day. Thank you to everyone who organized our Thanksgiving Liturgy, and to all who came home to Molloy. We hope everyone had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend.<\/p>\n
