Villa Maria College Annual Campaign

Why an Annual Campaign?

Each year Villa Maria College invites generous benefactors to support the mission of Villa Maria College. An unrestricted, recurring gift to the annual campaign, allows Villa Maria College to use your contribution where it is needed most.

Resources from the community enable the College to sustain its current activities while providing for innovative opportunities. It also allows us to explore new programs of study and enhance both current offerings with new technology and student experiences. Students benefit not only from the academic experience but from offerings that ensure a holistic approach to student life. The annual campaign also supports tuition grants for qualified students. Faculty and staff are also provided with professional development opportunities resulting in more vibrant approaches to learning.

Who is invited to participate in the annual campaign?

• Alumni

• Trustees

• Friends

• Parents

• Faculty and Staff

• Religious and Clergy

• Corporations and Foundations

• ...all who are interested in supporting the Mission of Villa Maria College
