Development Office and Program

Development efforts account for a significant percentage of Bellarmine's operating budget, as well as funds for capital and endowment. While fundraising is its major focus, Development also works to advance the school in other ways: through volunteer recruitment, marketing assistance, public relations and support of the planning process.

The Development effort will maximize the school's resources, balance long- and short-term objectives, keep fundraising costs down, encourage broad involvement and reinforce the school's mission.

Annual Giving

Bellarmine's Annual Giving Fund helps to cover the difference between the actual costs of educating students and the actual tuition that is charged students. Annual Giving includes donations from Parent, Alumni, the Parents of Alumni, and Friends. Annual Giving supports all aspects of the school's operating budget and enables Bellarmine to keep tuition as affordable as possible. Thank you for your generous support of Annual Giving.

Student Fundraisers

Students participate in two fundraisers during the school term. In the fall, each student is asked to sell 3 Entertainment Books. In the spring, all students participate in the Community Caring Campaign (formerly Fitness Fun). These two highly successful fundraisers raise nearly $250,000 for the school--providing funds for financial aid and other operating costs.
