OUR LEGACY
50 for 50 — Our Class Gift
Fifty years later, we have the chance to do something meaningful together. Our goal is simple: $50,000 from the Class of ’76—a way to give back to Jesuit in honor of everything it gave us. As of May 6, we are at $42,759 -- let's go!
Whatever level makes sense for you, step in and be counted—every gift moves us closer.
Take a moment to think about what Jesuit meant to you—and what it made possible. If you’re in a position to lead the way, we’d love to see a few classmates step forward to help build a matching gift and get us moving.
