Bellarmine Day of Giving

Day of Giving 2026

On March 18, Knights Unite for our annual Day of Giving, where alumni, families, and friends are invited to support the transformative Bellarmine experience for our students. Bellarmine students and graduates made a difference in our world each and EVERY day – so we are asking our community to join us to be part of Bellarmine University’s Day of Giving!

You can choose to give to the Bellarmine Fund, one of Bellarmine’s five college and schools, the Student Emergency Needs Fund, Faculty and Staff Support, or Bellarmine Athletics. Every gift – whether $5 or $500 – helps strengthen Bellarmine, our students, and our community. Together, we can make a difference.
