Class Gift - commencement

 

Class Gift

Join your fellow seniors in shaping the experience of future Benedictine University students. 

All seniors are encouraged to honor their graduation year by contributing to an area they care about.

When you give to a specific area, it’s a significant way to support the University and allow future students to benefit from opportunities like those you enjoyed.

Whether you give to athletics, your academic major, a student organization, the Mission Fund, or another area you’re interested in, you can support a cause you’re passionate about that has helped define your BenU experience.

If you are interested in serving on the Senior Class Gift committee, contact Dr. PJ Thompson at 630-829-6063 or via email.
