Ways to Give
The Augustinian Fund strengthens the mission of the Province of Saint Thomas of Villanova. Generous benefactors sustain the Augustinian way of life through support for the care of our elderly and infirm friars and the education and training of new members to the Augustinian Order. The Fund also provides support for Augustinian ministries that serve the poor and marginalized in foreign missions in Japan and Peru, the Augustinian Volunteer program and the Province’s Justice and Peace Initiatives.
