Where Every Child Is Known and Loved: The Power of the Acorn Fund

As this final phase of the Acorn Fund comes to a close, we are reminded of the countless moments of connection that make St. Benedict’s such a special place. The Judge family’s experience reflects the spirit of care that your support helps make possible.

For Alex and Ryan Judge, St. Benedict’s has become a place where their daughters, Andie in Kindergarten and Sydney in PK4, feel safe, encouraged, and truly known. “St. B’s has given our girls a safe place to grow and stretch their legs both socially and academically, all while feeling truly loved,” they say. “It has given us a place to make friends and connect with like minded parents. The St. B’s community truly feels like a big warm hug.”

Your support of the Acorn Fund directly strengthens the team of teachers and staff who shape the daily experiences of students like Andie and Sydney. The Judges shared that their daughters are encouraged, supported, and understood by the adults they interact with each day, whether in the classroom or with the Stinger Squad. This consistent, caring presence is what makes their girls eager to return each Monday. As Alex and Ryan said, “Everyone they meet treats them with genuine care.”

As this final phase comes to a close, we invite every family to join us. Your gift strengthens the programs, classrooms, and experiences that help children like Andie and Sydney grow into confident, kind, and thoughtful human beings.

There is still time to make a meaningful difference.
