Events

During this biennial event, we honor the extraordinary work and service of Catholic University's most distinguished alumni and other deserving individuals.

Imagine alumni, parents, students, faculty, staff, and friends of Catholic University uniting for an entire month to volunteer in their communities across the globe. Although separated geographically, we can serve as one. Our bond would be stronger than the distances that separate us. Our sum would be greater than our parts. Our impact would be truly awesome.

Celebrate the founding of The Catholic University of America by participating in our annual day of giving!

With the Senior Class Gift challenge, the entire graduating class celebrates their accomplishments, establishes a powerful legacy, and sets an example for future senior classes.

We celebrate reunion classes at each milestone anniversary; starting with the fifth year, continuing every five years through the fiftieth. During your reunion milestone anniversary, we challenge you to show your Cardinal pride in a special way as you compete for one of the four alumni cups!

On the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, consider making  The Catholic University of America a philanthropic priority during the giving season. Be a part of a larger cause by making a gift to the University and sharing your support on social media.

Who would win between football and basketball? Lacrosse and tennis? Golf and volleyball? We’ll never have a definitive answer, but with the Cardinal Athletics Giving Challenge, we level the playing field so that the varsity sports can compete against each other.

Each year, we celebrate scholarship donors and their scholars.

In collaboration with the Athletics Department, we recognize and honor alumni and coaches who made distinguished contributions to varsity athletics at Catholic University.

Cardinal Weekend is our annual homecoming and reunion extravaganza. We encourage all alumni, parents, faculty, staff, and students to join us for this largest gathering of The Catholic University of America's extended family.
