About
This year on Giving Day, we’re celebrating Monks on the Move!
We are excited to announce that a $50,000 pledge has been made to SJC again this year! To unlock this generous gift, we need to show that our community is everywhere by securing a donation from all 50 states. Help us turn the map blue! 🗺️💙
To celebrate our Monks on the Move, we are mailing a pair of custom SJC socks to the very first donor of $25 from each state! 🧦📦 Your gift, no matter the size, is the key to unlocking $50,000 for our students. Help us make a difference in the lives of our students, the heart of our mission.
Check your state off the map today and show us where you’re representing SJC! 💙
In addition to our special match goal of 50 gifts, from all 50 states, our 2026 Giving Day participation goal is 450 donors! Reaching 450 donors unlocks a special gift from the Board of Trustees. Your gift of any size will help us get there.
This year you can choose where to focus your support:
💙Community Rising supports the College’s greatest needs. This includes enhanced student programming, facility upgrades, academic support, and important technological advances.
🎓SJC Scholarships in support of all students and majors. SJC has awarded more than $19 million in scholarship aid to deserving students this school year. For many students, this support is the only way they can afford to remain enrolled and complete their degree.
🏆Royal Blue in support of SJC Athletics. This fund supports all student athletes and ensures they have the training and resources they need to succeed. It includes funding for individual and team development, team travel experiences, athletic facility enhancements, student-athlete programming, and more.
March 18th, 2026 is your opportunity to support the people, programs, and possibilities for Saint Joe’s students. We hope that you will make a gift that is meaningful to you.
Please share in the comments your reason for giving or who you’re giving in honor of. Maybe it’s a professor who impacted you or a coach that was particularly influential. Perhaps you received a scholarship that made a difference, and you’d like to help others in the same way. Or it’s the education you received that has led you to a meaningful career.
No matter where you are located, you are part of the SJC Monks community! Help us turn the map blue and show the impact of SJC. 🗺️💙
