Help Leave Your Mark

One of Saint Mary’s College proudest traditions is giving back! Since the 1920’s, students have rallied behind raising funds through Class Gift Campaign to help honor their experiences here. Your gifts go directly to the Saint Mary's Fund, which impacts every aspect of the student experience. From providing scholarships for students and supporting research for faculty, to the creation of vibrant programming and the maintenance of our beautiful campus, gifts to the Saint Mary’s Fund make the difference between a good education and a great one.. By participating in Class Gift Campaign as a student, you show that you want to make sure the legacy of Saint Mary's continues long after your graduation date. 

You may not realize it, but you've already been helped by the Saint Mary's Fund's efforts! In fact, one hundred percent of Saint Mary’s students receive some form of institutional financial aid. Help give back to the school that has helped you grow academically, spiritually, and personally over the past four years by supporting Class Gift Campaign today!

Senior Walkway

Following graduation, each class’s participation rates in their Senior Class Gift Campaign will be immortalized in pavers on Alumnae Green. Show your support. Help your class leave a strong legacy.

Benefits

Though you’re still a student, it’s not too early to start giving back. Even small gifts make a big difference. When you give back, no matter the amount, you increase the College’s alumnae and student participation rate.

Select organizations use this rate when they evaluate Saint Mary’s. A higher giving rate means a higher ranking. A higher ranking means your degree is worth more. That’s important for graduate programs., internships, and job opportunities. It’s a win-win.
