A Benefit for Xavier Alumnus Mike Glover

On Saturday January 22nd 2011, there will be a scholarship fundraiser in the memory of LCpl. Mike Glover of the US Marine Corps at Xavier High School in New York City from 7 PM - 11 PM.

I recently read about Mike on Linked In as he was an alumnus of Xavier High School. From what I read, he exemplified the Xavier and Jesuit motto of "One for others" as a son, brother, uncle, grandson, friend and Marine. In these days when the term hero can be overused Mike personifies that definition sacrifice and living for others to his fullest. There is a beautiful video on the web site as well.

Details about the fund raiser can be found at

I can think of few better causes to help.

Thanks

Tom Henderson (Xavier alumnus)
