Honor Your Graduate

The "Honor Your Graduate" gift campaign recognizes the tremendous impact Fairfield has had and will continue to have on your students.

As proud senior parents, you can make a senior tribute gift to honor your student's successes or someone influential to them during their time at Fairfield. These gifts make your student's Fairfield experiences possible for future Stags.

A Gift of Any Size

With a gift of any size, write your student a congratulatory message to be delivered to their inbox in a specially designed surprise email the week before Commencement. Make your gift by Thursday, May 1 to ensure your message is delivered to your student in time.

Gifts of any size also earn you a spot on the Donor Roll of Parents.

With a gift of $100+, you will receive an F’25 commemorative pin for your student.

Throughout my time at Fairfield, I have learned valuable lessons both inside and outside the classroom. Fairfield's passionate professors make me enthusiastic about learning and trying new things. Everyone at Fairfield is so special and I am honored to be a member of this community. Your generosity is a tremendous help to my family and me and motivates me to continue to work diligently towards my goals.

Capstone Scholarship Gift

As a Jesuit University, scholarship support is critical to our mission as we seek to help those in need. Celebrating your student’s achievements by making a Capstone Scholarship Gift of $10,000 or more will extend the opportunity for a life-changing education to future Stags.
Your Capstone Scholarship Gift can be directed to the most meaningful initiative for you and your student.

Financial Aid continues to be the most urgent need among our students. Each day, the University receives Financial Aid appeals from families in need. By making a gift to the Parents Fund for Financial Aid of $10,000 or more, you are providing critical funds to support our students and families without delay.

When you create a named scholarship, you are establishing a permanent family fund invested to produce sustainable revenue. Each year, this income provides a scholarship award and grows its corpus to produce an even greater long-term benefit for students.

Named scholarships can be funded with a minimum gift of $100,000 given in full or through a multi-year pledge. In addition to naming, scholarships of $100,000 can also advise requirements for awarding in consultation with the Advancement Office.
