Grad donates $1 million to Judge
The Friends of Father Judge High School, Inc. recently received a $1 million commitment from Michael Reilly ’69, president of Ryeco, LLC. The company is owned and operated by the father and son team of Michael Reilly Sr. ’69 and Michael Reilly Jr. ’87. The commitment will support the ongoing capital campaign, The Campaign for 3301, Securing the Future of Father Judge High School.
Reilly, is a graduate of St. Dominic Grammar School. His parents, George and Geraldine, raised him and his seven siblings.
“We must give back, so future generations have the chance I had to succeed,” Reilly said. “This is all on loan from Almighty God. There are too many people responsible for my success to mention here.”
Development Director Charles “Huck” Huckel ’66 said, “It was a way Mike could give back to Father Judge. This $1 million gift will give Father Judge the ability to support new Career Technical Education programs, tuition assistance and renovations. We cannot thank Mike enough for his generous support.”
The Rev. Joseph Campellone OSFS, President Emeritus, said, “I first met Mike in the late ‘90s as he was one of our coaches on the Judge hockey team. His son was also a player on our Flyers Cup championship team. For Mike, it has always been about family first. His love for his wife, his kids, brothers, sisters and grandchildren has always been edifying to me. Mike has quietly and humbly helped many other organizations in need throughout his life. He is simply an ordinary guy who has done extraordinary things in his business as well as his life, and that is the true mark of a Salesian gentleman.”
In the fall of 2023, Father Judge High School launched a capital campaign, “The Campaign for 3301, Securing the Future of Father Judge.” Reilly joins a group of growing supporters who are investing in strategic initiatives to benefit students. To date, including this commitment, the school has secured $19.5 million toward its campaign goal of $20 million.
Established in May 2002, The Friends is a nonprofit corporation that fundraises on behalf of Father Judge. All funds raised are managed and designated for use at the school. Since its formation, The Friends have invested more than $17 million to make improvements to the school campus, provide financial aid and fund academic programs that complement the traditional curriculum. ••

An award for Jeanes
Temple University Hospital – Jeanes Campus has earned national recognition from the American Heart Association for its commitment to providing high-quality stroke care.
Jeanes earned Get With The Guidelines – Stroke Gold Plus with Target: Type 2 Diabetes Honor Roll awards.The Get With The Guidelines – Stroke Gold Plus quality achievement award recognizes the commitment to ensuring stroke patients receive the most appropriate treatment according to nationally recognized, research-based guidelines, ultimately leading to more lives saved and reduced disability.
The Target: Type 2 Diabetes Honor Roll award aims to ensure patients with Type 2 diabetes, who might be at higher risk for complications, receive the most up-to-date, evidence-based care when hospitalized due to stroke. Stroke is the No. 5 cause of death and a leading cause of disability in the U.S. A stroke occurs when a blood vessel that carries oxygen and nutrients to the brain is either blocked by a clot or bursts. When that happens, part of the brain cannot get the blood and oxygen it needs, so brain cells die. Early stroke detection and treatment are key to improving survival, minimizing disability and accelerating recovery times. ••
Caliber food drive benefits Feast of Justice
The Caliber family of automotive repair and service brands, including Caliber Collision and Caliber Auto Glass, announced the results of its annual Restoring You™ Food Drive. This year’s campaign raised more than $1.3 million in total monetary donations and collected more than 8.5 million meals to support 200-plus food banks across the 41 states where Caliber serves. The event ran from May 5 to June 20, and exceeded Caliber’s goal of collecting 6 million meals.
Among the organizations benefiting from the food drive was Feast of Justice.
“At Caliber, we’re proud of our teammates’ deep commitment to the communities we serve,” said David Simmons, Chief Executive Officer of Caliber. “While delivering exceptional service and repairs remains our top priority, we also recognize the urgent and often overlooked crisis of hunger. Food insecurity impacts millions of Americans, including many in our own neighborhoods. Our mission extends beyond restoring vehicles; it’s about restoring lives. That’s why our annual food drive is so important. This year, we set a bold goal of 6 million meals, much more than last year’s total, and thanks to the generosity of our team, customers and partners, we delivered 8.5 million meals to help those who are hungry. That’s the power of compassion and community in action, and the spirit of helping others that Caliber’s teammates and customers alike share.”
According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), food insecurity is the lack of consistent and equitable access to healthy, safe and affordable foods that promote optimal health and well-being. Hunger affects nearly 18 million households in the U.S., leaving nearly 7 million children food insecure and more than 50 million people requiring food assistance.
With this year’s results, Caliber has now contributed more than 44 million meals to families in need nationwide over the last 14 years. To learn more about Caliber and its community involvement, visit the Caliber in the Community page. ••
