On Giving Tuesday, 138 members of the Saint Mary’s community came together in support of students with gifts totaling $32,580!

These gifts were matched through the generosity of the J & W Murphy Foundation and the Saint Mary’s Alumni Association, with all funds going directly to the Saint Mary’s Student Wellness Fund.

Gifts and the matching funds will help students through initiatives such as the on-campus Community Food Room, the Enactus Saint Mary’s Square Roots vegetable bundle program and provide some holiday cheer in the form of care packages for those students not able to travel home over the holidays due to COVID-19.

A special thanks is extended to faculty and staff members who made this Giving Tuesday one of the most successful ever. Thank you for uniting together to offer immediate support to students.
