Creating a Community of Support

Alfonso ’ 24 discovered track and became a star scholar athlete at Fordham Prep thanks to Mr . George Febles P ’ 15 ,’ 22 , legendary track coach and Hall of Honor inductee — one member of a trifecta of supporters who would help Alfonso clear a major hurdle in life .
process , so he sought guidance from Mr . Febles , Mr . Tejeda ’ 07 , his college counselor , and Colin Flynn ’ 07 , a pivotal mentor he met through the Prep ’ s George Jackson ’ 76 Scholarship Initiative . Together , they helped Alfonso discern his long-term goals and navigate scholarship opportunities . Today , he is a two-time All-American , ready to take the field and study physics and engineering at Williams College and Columbia University in a five-year program beginning in September .
Your support of the Annual Fund will help students discover the pathway to their goals .
Supporting Alfonso has been one of the most rewarding experiences I ’ ve ever had . As a mentor , I could not be prouder of his faith in God ’ s plan , his decision-making , his work ethic , and his goal-setting abilities . Best of all , I know he ’ s set up well to effectively navigate the ups and downs of life ahead .
