Ted Catino
Entrepreneur Ted Catino developed the GigSmart mobile application to bring independent workers and businesses together into a single labor market platform. But the app’s uses don’t stop with for-profit companies. It also allows charities to search for skilled and motivated volunteers to complete projects, with the same ease and efficiency available to business customers. Ted Catino’s commitment to philanthropic work also includes his establishment of the Catino Family Foundation, which is focused on meeting the need for scholarships to support Catholic school education.
Experts list numerous benefits of a solid Catholic education for children from primary school through to high school graduation. These include a deepening experience of religious faith, the development of empathy for others, and the strengthening of essential life skills such as concentration, perseverance, and realistic goal-setting.
Curricula at Catholic schools are marked by the same type of attention to detail and focus on scholarship that typify the centuries-old traditions of Church-sponsored learning. And these high scholastic standards are accompanied by an equally strong emphasis on the social and emotional development that today’s best research says enhances students’ learning.
The academic program at a good Catholic school typically provides the type of academic rigor that prepares students well for college and university work, and for challenging 21st century careers. For example, today’s Catholic schools maintain a strong focus on STEM and technology-related courses, often provided through funds invested in the building of high-quality laboratories and other school infrastructure.
