THANK YOU 2024-2025 BELLARMINE BUSINESS PARTNERS

We want to thank all of you for the lifetime of support and encouragement you, in your own ways, provided to Ben and Clarisse. We’ve all heard the adage, “It takes a Village…”. Thank you for being a contributing member of that village.

 

Ben and Clarisse were further blessed with having a second “village” of support - not just Bellarmine Preparatory School, but also the broader Bellarmine community! Bellarmine faculty, staff, and administration, embrace all students with the unified mission of graduating students of competence, compassion and conscience, committed to leadership and service.

 

Both Ben and Clarisse (B’23 & B’24, respectively) continue to exhibit that commitment to leadership and service within their new college community, and for this I am very thankful! It is the reason I continue to be a part of Bellarmine and the broader community.

 

I personally know of several truly impressive current students and recent alumni who would not have been able to experience Bellarmine without this important program. Please consider contributing any amount so that others may experience Bellarmine, too.

 Bellarmine Tuition Assistance Program
providing access to Catholic, Jesuit education

“Bellarmine has given me so many opportunities. Every day I walk into Bellarmine excited...Thank you for believing in us.”  Current Bellarmine student

The annual Bellarmine Gala, our flagship fundraising event, is essential to supporting Bellarmine's Tuition Assistance Program. Over the past five years alone, the event has raised $4.2 million, including a record $1.1 million in 2024. This year, 45% of our student body benefits from tuition assistance, with a total of nearly $3.1 million in aid distributed, ensuring a Bellarmine education remains accessible. Guided by our Catholic, Jesuit mission, Bellarmine offers a holistic, transformative educational experience. Thank you for supporting this vital work through your support of the Bellarmine Gala.

We aim to raise over $500,000 for tuition assistance through Fund a Need to continue providing vital access to a Bellarmine education. Please join us in our shared mission – together we can Ignite Futures.
