Mission: Amici, sponsored and staffed by the Fulcrum Foundation, is a service organization of people in their 20's and 30's who support Catholic schools in a variety of ways: 

* Fundraising to support tuition assistance for students in Catholic schools or assistance to schools in need.                                                                                                                                              * Hands-on service to Catholic students and schools, for example: 
          §  Mentoring
          §  Volunteering
          §  Service projects
          §  Classroom visits
Through service projects, fundraising, socializing, and networking friends of Catholic schools in their 20's and 30's are introduced to like-minded people and to the culture of stewardship and philanthropy while supporting the cause of Catholic schools.
