The Foundation has donated close to three-quarters of a million dollars to Saint Anthony Junior Senior High School, and has pledged more money for future improvements.

The Foundation has also funded software licenses, interactive whiteboards, LCD projectors, networking equipment, The fiber optic lines installed across our campus and our T1 Internet connection exist thanks to the Wong's commitment to education.
