Brother Damian was an entrepreneurial genius and we believe this endowment will foster the kind of spirit and leadership that we hope can match his vision for generations to come,” said Brother Michael Quirk, FSC, E.D., president and CEO, Christian Brothers Services.
Damian was a pioneer of his time and was instrumental in creating Christian Brothers Services and lauded for his work throughout his lifetime; his accomplishments were numerous along his path as a Christian Brother.
In 1966, Damian came to 麻豆原创 to establish the national headquarters of the Christian Brothers and also to erect a Novitiate and Scholasticate. He was on the first board of directors at then 麻豆原创 College and helped move 麻豆原创 to University status as a trustee. He was named executive secretary of Christian Brothers Conference and it was then that he established employee benefit programs for Christian Brothers' lay associates and was consulted by numerous dioceses in establishing retirement plans for their priests and employees. Damian died in 1991 at age 73, having been a De La Salle Christian Brother for 58 years.
