Annual Fund

At Saint Xavier University, people give of themselves in many different ways. One tangible way that the Saint Xavier community shows its support is by giving to the Saint Xavier Fund. This fund provides the much needed scholarships and financial aid for our talented and deserving students. The Saint Xavier Fund also enables the University to attract outstanding faculty, expand academic programs and maintain campus facilities.

Loyal support from alumni, friends, parents, faculty, staff and students ensures that a tradition of giving continues at Saint Xavier University.

Benefits

As an Annual Fund donor, you will enjoy:

  • Early registration for SXU's most popular events.
  • Opportunities to have your story featured in University publications, online and in published donor reports.
  • Access to donor newsletters and exclusive University communications.

Remember: If your employer participates in a matching gift program, your gift could automatically be doubled or even tripled! Many companies will match gifts for employee spouses and retired employees, as well. Ask your employer about the specific requirements and ways to utilize this program.

Make a gift to the Saint Xavier Fund online or contact the Office for University Advancement at 773-298-3317.
