Be Part of a Record-Breaking Class

Have you ever dreamed of making history? Well you can — without even breaking a sweat. Just make a gift to The St. Edward's Fund by June 30 and help set the university's record for the highest number of alumni participants in a single year. As of today, we need only 274 more alumni to give a gift — of any amount — by today, Thursday, June 30. With your participation we can reach the university's goal of 15 percent alumni giving.

So why break the record? Because when publications like U.S. News & World Report rank universities, they look at alumni participation — in other words, the percentage of alumni who make gifts — as a measure of alumni satisfaction. Besides raising awareness of St. Edward's, these guides help many prospective students and their parents decide where to attend school. Most importantly, your gift supports vital university programs and resources:

Now that you know why to give, here are three easy ways to give from the comfort of your couch and laptop or the convenience of your office:

  • Give online right now
  • Call 800-964-7833
  • Or, mail your check to:
    The St. Edward's Fund
    3001 South Congress Avenue
    Austin, TX 78704

Thanks in advance for your support. Now go out and help spread the word! Tell your friends and fellow alumni to make a gift to St. Edward's and keep track of our progress toward the 15 percent goal online.
