More than twenty years ago, the Cavanaugh Council and President’s Circle was established to gather Notre Dame’s most loyal alumni, parents, and friends. Today, your enduring generosity and leadership strengthens the University’s sacred mission and fortifies its storied foundations. Cavanaugh Council and President’s Circle members directly impact thousands of Notre Dame students and faculty every day, uplift partnerships informed by our Catholic mission, and inspire the entire Notre Dame community by their leadership, service, and faith.
We are profoundly grateful for your generosity, which makes a powerful and immediate impact on the entire Notre Dame community.
From making a Notre Dame education accessible and affordable through financial aid to advancing life-saving research in our labs, your support is directly responsible for the transformational experiences that form students in both the heart and the mind and bring hope to a world deeply in need. Thank you for your leadership, partnership, and commitment to Our Lady’s University.
“Family is a vital part of my life. Instead of worrying about how tuition was going to impact them, my financial aid scholarship from the Cavanaugh Council and President’s Circle removed those fears, allowed me to fully embrace the opportunities at Notre Dame, and find a home where I am inspired by everyone I meet. I am so grateful to you for making this experience a reality. Thank you!”
