Missions and Outreach

Our Vision at St. Thomas More is for every Knight to make a positive contribution to the Earth and its people. Our mission and outreach programs help to give students an opportunity to help the less fortunate in the world through charity and service. A worldwide tradition in Christian Brothers' Schools is the collection of money for our foreign missions.
