Donor Appreciation 2012 is a special opportunity for the Saint Mary’s community to personally acknowledge our many alumnae and friends who generously support the College.  And it is an occasion for you, our benefactors, to visit the campus and discover anew how your gifts have enhanced Saint Mary’s.

This year we are introducing a new format – “Lunch and Learn” – that begins at noon on Saturday (following registration in Madeleva Hall), and continues into the afternoon.  The evening events begin with the 5:30 p.m. Mass in the Chapel of the Holy Spirit, followed by a cocktail reception and gala dinner.  The evening will culminate with a presentation by President Mooney following dinner.

More than fifty years ago Sister Madeleva told Saint Mary’s students:  “We promise you discovery, the discovery of yourselves, the discovery of the universe and your place in it.”  At the heart of our programming for Donor Appreciation 2012, we will recall Sister Madeleva’s vision of a Catholic, liberal arts education for women and examine how Saint Mary’s is keeping the promise of discovery today. 

We are delighted to welcome you to Donor Appreciation 2012.  Thank you for giving us the opportunity to share the campus with you for a day and to personally express our gratitude for your faithful support of Saint Mary’s College.
