The Bellarmine Advancement Board is a dedicated group of Bellarmine alumni, parents, and friends who appreciate the value of a Bellarmine education and want to make it accessible to talented students who lack the necessary financial resources. As Bellarmine ambassadors, the Board engages new and existing donors to help them see how their support for financial aid can make a difference for our students, our community, and beyond.
Thanks to the passion and commitment of our Board, more donors than ever before are joining Bellarmine's President’s Society, the university’s premier donor recognition club.
To learn more, visit our President's Society page or contact Jen White, Associate Director of Bellarmine Fund at (502) 272-8182 or jwhite18@bellarmine.edu.
