Giving to Albertus

“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.” ~ Sir Winston Churchill

Why Give to Albertus?

Since its first fundraising campaign in 1935, Albertus Magnus College has developed a tradition of giving among alumni, parents and friends. This commitment and dedication has enabled the College to provide the level of assistance and service that each student needs in order to reach his or her academic goals. Your participation in the Annual Fund, which runs from July 1 to June 30 each year, gives our students the support necessary to continue the Albertus tradition of excellence.

Contributions, regardless of the level, provide resources that go toward the College’s most immediate needs. Your gift allows the College to fund student financial assistance, develop innovative courses and enhance classroom technology.

Albertus Magnus College is grateful for the generosity and commitment of all its alumni, parents and friends who have enriched their own lives by supporting our many talented and deserving students with a gift to the Annual Fund.

Why is my gift important?

Every gift counts and helps to increase participation rates. Foundations considering much-needed grants to the College want to know the percentage of alumni who support their alma mater. Their thinking goes this way: if alumni don't support the College, why should they?

Albertus needs the support of all alumni, no matter what their program or degree. Gifts to the College come not only from those who received degrees through the traditional day program, but from graduates of our New Dimensions, Continuing Education/Accelerated Degree Program and Master's programs as well. These graduates, who have juggled classes with job and family responsibilities, understand the need to assist Albertus in accommodating its growing enrollment of "life-long learners."
