Support Regis
A Letter from The Regis Fund Alumni Chair
Dear Regis Alumni and Alumni Parents,
As I’ve been sitting here combing through my brain for memories to help kick-start this letter, I realized that I found myself going down memory lane. I kept remembering all of the stories and just how incredible Regis truly was for me.
From that first day I stepped foot in the old building for Pre-K3 all the way to the day my class and I said “see-ya” to the campus—11 years of my life unfolded within those walls, and I can say without a doubt that they were the most foundational years of who I have become.
As a Regis “lifer,” I experienced firsthand how Regis becomes more than just a school; it becomes family. The friends I made on my very first day remain some of my closest friends today, a testament to the genuine community that Regis fosters. Regis taught me that excellence wasn’t just an expectation—it was a way of life that they made genuinely achievable for every student who walked through those doors. That foundation carried me through St. Thomas High School, Texas A&M University, South Texas College of Law, and into my professional life today.
What makes Regis truly special isn’t just the outstanding academics, strong Catholic faith formation, or Coach Holub’s pre-game speeches—though all are exceptional—it’s the complete package. I’m already looking forward to the day when I can send my own son to Regis because that’s how profoundly this school has impacted my life.
That’s why I’m reaching out for your support of The Regis Fund: Empowering Scholars & Gentlemen. Your generosity enables our teachers and staff to deliver an exceptional all-boys education in the Sacred Heart tradition while maintaining beloved traditions and investing in state-of-the-art resources. Every gift, regardless of size, makes a significant difference.
Your generosity is vital in providing The Regis Experience to current Regis students and enables our teachers and staff to deliver an exceptional all-boys education in the Sacred Heart tradition. Every gift helps make a difference in our community. So, please join me and the rest of the Regis community in making a gift or a pledge to The Regis Fund: Empowering Scholars and Gentlemen.
Thank you for considering this opportunity to give back to the school that has given us so much. Everyone knows it takes a village to raise a child, but I know I was incredibly fortunate that my village was Regis. Together, we can help ensure that future generations of young men receive the same transformational education that shaped us. By giving today, you are investing in the same village that raised you to empower tomorrow’s leaders, scholars, and gentlemen.
Respectfully,
Jacob M. Manley
