Make a Gift Today to the SMR Annual Fund!

Countless alumni, parents and friends help to raise funds every year to strengthen the financial future of St. Mary’s Ryken. 
 
Nurturing extraordinary students and faculty takes extraordinary resources! Donations to the St. Mary’s Ryken Annual Fund enriches the lives of each Knight through the important work of preparing leaders, growing spiritually through faith and service, creating art in all its glorious forms and providing a challenging 21st century curriculum. Your support gives us the resources to be able to say YES as opportunities arise to provide for our students, faculty and campus. 
 
When you make a gift to the SMR Annual Fund, you can earmark it for a particular area: arts, campus ministry, humanities, professional development, tuition assistance or the student life fund, to name a few! The amount you are able to give may vary, and the areas you choose to support may change. But your commitment to giving every year provides the sustainable base of support that allows us to make a difference every day. 
 
Help us to answer YES when we are called to be extraordinary! You can make a difference today by making a donation online, or by the various other Ways to Support. Your gift, no matter what the size, will have a positive impact.
