Experience Bellarmine

Bellarmine University’s annual Day of Giving raised $210,914 in just 24 hours, supporting students, programs, and campus initiatives across the university. This year’s success brings the six-year campaign total to more than $1.7 million, thanks to the generosity of alumni, faculty, staff, students, parents, and friends.

Bellarmine University has received a $105,000 grant from the Jewish Heritage Fund to expand its new Master of Science in Clinical Psychology program and improve adolescent mental health care in Louisville and across Kentucky. The funding will provide student fellowships to offset unpaid clinical training, increase access to the program, and support a community event focused on youth voices and mental health advocacy. Launched in fall 2025, the program aims to address the growing shortage of mental health providers by training clinicians with a focus on culturally responsive care and community impact.
