  • 2024 Young Alumnus Recipient: John Fanta ’13

    Being selected for the Young Alumnus Award was a profoundly emotional moment for John, especially as he remembered his late father, who had been one of his biggest supporters. John attributes his success to the unwavering support of his family, particularly his parents, Gerry and Molly, who ensured he could attend and excel at Saint Ignatius, and his wife, Victoria, who has been by his side throughout his career. For John, this honor is not just a personal achievement but a tribute to his family's legacy at Saint Ignatius High School.
