Giving to Saint Mary’s

Shaping thinkers, leaders, and changemakers

Saint Mary’s offers a rare combination in higher education: the academic rigor of a top-tier liberal arts college, the practical focus of career-aligned programs, and a campus culture intentionally designed to support and empower students from all backgrounds. 

Your gifts support the environment, mentorship, and educational model that helps Gael students thrive, lead, and create lasting impacts in their communities.

Stand up and be counted

President Thompson shares updates for the new academic year and the important role Saint Mary’s alumni play in the College’s present and future. He invites alumni to stand up and be counted by supporting the College that shaped them, and as well as investing in the students who will carry the Gael spirit forward. 

Every Gael matters. Every gift matters.

A message from Br. Thomas Jones, FSC

This time of year, as new students settle in at Saint Mary’s and others begin new classes, activities, and friendships, I see something remarkable: young people beginning to find their own way in the world.

College is a time of becoming—a time when we begin to understand who we are and how we might contribute to the world.It gives me hope. And as a Saint Mary’s alumnus or supporter, that search may be familiar to you. 

When you invest in a student, your generosity reaches far beyond their years on campus. What they learn, discover, and become here creates a ripple effect they carry into the world. 

I invite you to continue supporting today’s students with a gift that is meaningful to you.

–Brother Thomas Jones, FSC '69
