Donating to the annual fund is one of the most powerful ways you can make an impact. Support from alumni, parents, faculty and staff, and friends gives Catholic University the flexibility to act when extraordinary opportunities arise — or pressing needs surface.

Make a powerful impact

When you contribute to The Fund for Catholic University, you help to ensure that a Catholic University education remains affordable to each student who seeks one. Your contribution also helps to relieve the operational budget, providing necessary funds to the areas with the most pressing needs.

Bridge the gap

The Fund for Catholic University bridges a nearly 10% gap between what students pay for an education and the actual cost of each student’s Catholic University education.

The Fund supports academic programs, faculty, facility upgrades, and technology enhancements across all 12 schools.

Create connections

The Fund for Catholic University creates connections between our alumni, parents, faculty, staff, and students.

Giving challenges throughout the year — such as Founders Day, Giving Tuesday, and the Athletics challenge — help us lift Catholic University up.

Enlarge the University's footprint

The Fund for Catholic University expands opportunities, enlarges the University’s footprint, and prepares students to improve our world.

The Fund builds a culture of philanthropy that enhances the value of each Catholic University degree — including your own.
