The Guiding Light Medallion Artist - Laurence Groux - Bio Commissioned and underwritten by Marty & Susan Bevilacqua
The Guiding Light Medallion Each is handmade, numbered and signed by the spiritually inspired French/Swiss artist ~Laurence (Elle) Groux~ (read bio)
The medallion embodies the idea of a child being led by an adult using the "Light" of the De La Salle School for guidance. In a figurative way, the child's sponsor is also lighting a student's path through his years of education within the school.
It is reserved for those that firmly believe in The De La Salle School, and its mission, and have made it possible for a worthy child to attend each year!
Below is a photo of the Benefactors that were awarded the first group of medallions. These special people have so strong a belief in the school's mission, that they have donated over $50,000 since the school opened in 2002.
