Building a Legacy of Faith, Formation, and Service
For more than sixty years, Aquinas College has served the Church through the formation of teachers, religious sisters, seminarians, catechists, and lay faithful. This mission continues today because of the generosity and vision of benefactors who believe in the transformative power of Catholic education.

The Dominican Campus Heritage Club honors individuals and families whose gifts help secure the future of Aquinas College and the educational ministries of the Dominican Sisters of St. Cecilia. Through endowment gifts and planned giving commitments, Heritage Club members ensure that future generations will continue to benefit from a Dominican education rooted in faith, truth, and charity.

As Aquinas College looks to the future through its strategic vision, Called to Communion: One in Christ, One in Mission, we are grateful for those who choose to leave a lasting legacy in support of the Church’s mission and the formation of those who will teach, preach, evangelize, and serve.

Why the Heritage Club Matters
A gift to the Heritage Club is an investment in the future of the Church.

Through the work of Aquinas College, future Dominican Sisters are prepared for the teaching apostolate. Seminarians receive intellectual formation as they prepare for priestly ministry. Teachers, catechists, and lay faithful are equipped to share the Gospel and strengthen Catholic communities.

Heritage Club members make it possible for this mission to continue for generations to come.
