Annual Giving

The Annual Fund

The annual fund is the foundation of Aquinas College’s development program and the only other significant source of revenue after tuition and endowed funds. It is the most important source of unrestricted funds available to the College. Most donors begin their charitable giving relationship with the College through their support of the annual fund. Funds from annual giving provide operating monies that support the ongoing work at the College and bridge the critical gap between tuition and the actual cost to educate a student.

Your gift to the annual fund helps Aquinas College continue its history and mission of fostering intellectual achievement and personal growth in a socially and economically diverse population. A successful annual fund drive helps keep tuition as affordable as possible for students and their families.

Donations to the annual fund are fully tax-deductible, and can be paid by cash, check, credit card, online, or through stock transfers. Pledges can be paid in monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annual installments.

The annual fund drive runs concurrently with the fiscal year, July 1 through June 30.
