I’m so grateful to be playing a role in planning SALSthon this year—an event that means so much to our community. Every year, we come together to support an incredible cause, and I couldn’t be prouder to be part of something that makes such a real difference.

For those who don’t know, SALSthon (Students About Life Saving) is a huge fundraising effort between Padua Academy, Salesianum, and Ursuline Academy. Each year, we choose a nonprofit to rally behind, and this year, we’re supporting Read Aloud Delaware, an amazing organization dedicated to early childhood literacy. Their mission is simple but so important—making sure kids have the opportunity to fall in love with reading from an early age.

This event is a reminder of how powerful kindness and community can be. Every single effort—whether it’s donating, spreading the word, or just cheering us on—helps us get closer to our goal.
