From the Storytelling Room where reader’s theater brings literature to life, or a Makerspace Room brimming with robotics equipment, to collaborative learning furniture accented by Chromebooks or a serene reading corner, the renovation of our Lower School Library has unlimited potential.

The addition of bleachers to the Wellington T. Mara Field at the Upper School will allow for a second seating area along Wilmot Road to complement the cherished hill adjacent to the school.

FINANCIAL REPORT 2014-2015

Staying the Course As we approach our 100th year of excellence, Iona Preparatory School remains as committed to educating the young men of our time, K-12, as we did at our founding in 1916. Our benefactors have been equally constant, generating more than $3.5 million in generosity. For the sixth year in a row, Iona Prep saw its contributions account for an increased portion of total revenue.

DONOR ROLL 2014-2015

Taking us to the Next Level…

With preparations underway for the Lower and Upper School Centennial Celebration in 2016-2017, Iona Prep’s benefactors continued their strong support in the school’s 98th year. The total number of supporters grew by more than 11 percent last year, and participation increased in all but one of the following nine levels of giving. More funds were raised online than ever before, due in part to the success of a new #GivingTuesday campaign and an online giving day that kicks off the final month of the Fund for Iona Prep. With your support, we look forward to announcing that 2015-2016 was even better!

Loss Leads DiGioia Family to Generosity Street of Dreams continues to pave digital pathways at the Prep

BY ALEX MALECKI Good Catholics typically learn to be philanthropic by practicing giving at an early age. We learn by example, watching those we love be generous with their time, talent and treasure. Sometimes, though, giving begins when something is taken. Something precious. Something irreplaceable.

Mr. Frank DiGioia P’11,’14 was a senior at All Hallows High School in the Bronx when his father was killed during a robbery on the very street he had worked for 15 years. Much more than money was stolen from his family that day. But something miraculously was given, too . . .

“If it weren’t for All Hallows, the Irish Christian Brothers, and my Italian mother and family, my life could have turned out quite different,” Mr. DiGioia told those gathered at his Oct. 24, 2014, All Hallows High School Hall of Fame induction. “It was the All Hallows
