HELP US REACH OUR 760 DONOR-GOAL!

760 Donors Unlocks $76,000 for Stonehill!

GivingTuesday has officially begun, and we have an incredible opportunity for you to make a meaningful impact.

If 760 donors give today, Stonehill College will receive $76,000—all thanks to a generous anonymous challenge gift in honor our 76th academic year of service to students.

This is our moment to come together and make a difference for students. To unlock this challenge gift, we need YOU.

GivingTuesday is a day to affirm our Stonehill spirit and demonstrate that collectively we are the heart of the Hill.

Every gift helps us make a big impact in students’ lives. 

December 3, 2024 is GivingTuesday!

We are one Hill. One Community. One College with 2,500 soaring students, nurturing families, and 30,000+ alumni strong. All leading with heart and living our motto, Lux et Spes. 

This GivingTuesday, be the Heart of the Hill and make a gift in support of Stonehill to honor its exceptional past, celebrate its present and build its promising future.

Students come to Stonehill and entrust us with their potential. In order to meet that challenge, it requires a concerted effort. It calls on us to honor the transformative experience Stonehill provided when we were students and which it continues to offer current students.

Your gift has tremendous power in ensuring every student has access to engaging academics, thoughtful advising and life-changing experiences that prepare them for personal and professional success.

Be the Heart of the Hill

Stonehill provides transformative experiences and your involvement helps.

Recalling your Stonehill days, what were your most impactful experiences? As an alum, whether through giving, mentorship, volunteering or participating in events, how do you remain the heart of the hill?

Mission and Service

Virtual Event on December 3!
Programs such as H.O.P.E. Service Immersion, Campus Ministry, Chapel Choir, and The Farm at Stonehill provide opportunities for Stonehill students to engage in activities that enhance the College's mission.

Join us via livestream for the Festival of Lessons and Carols. During this special holiday program presented by Campus Ministry, the story of Jesus Christ's birth will be told through the reading of scripture, with musical selections performed by the Stonehill College Chapel Choir.

Wellness Initiatives Fund

The Wellness Initiatives Fund provides financial support to various student wellness programs, trainings, and events. In addition to the generous support from Robin McQueen-Lynch '80 and Bob Flynn '87, the Class of 2019 Senior Class Gift supported the Wellness Initiatives Fund.

Student groups, faculty, and staff are encouraged to apply for these funds to either develop new and innovative wellness initiatives or to enhance current program offerings.

Intercultural Affairs Programming Innovation Fund

Advancing and entrenching diversity, equity, and inclusion is a strategic priority of Stonehill College. Through the work of the Office of Intercultural Affairs (OIA), Stonehill can further its commitment to building a culture where differences are openly shared and celebrated. Your gift will support initiatives such as:
* Advocates for a Brighter Stonehill (ABS) Program and Intercultural Experience Program (IXP)
* BIPOC Achieving Connection and Empowerment at Stonehill (BACES) Mentoring Program
* History/Heritage Months and First-Generation Programming

Student Opportunity Fund

These funds, which are made available through the generous support of donors to the College, are available to students in order to subsidize the costs associated with their participation in a wide range of high-impact learning activities. Preference is given to students who are able to clearly articulate and demonstrate the significant financial hardships or barriers that jeopardize their ability to participate in desired high-impact learning experiences.

Bridge Fund

At Stonehill College, we are committed to ensuring that we help make our world-class education accessible and affordable to every student. We understand that being able to stay at Stonehill can be an uphill battle for some students.

Stonehill created the Bridge Fund in 2016 to provide financial support to students facing an unexpected financial setback that leaves them in danger of not being able to complete their college education.

Support Stonehill Student-Athletes

The GoHill Fund

The Stonehill College Athletics Department seeks to pursue excellence in the form of academic and competitive success, community engagement, and whole-person development. The generous support of donors like you plays a vital role in the achievement of these goals.

Student-athletes make up roughly 20% of the undergraduate student body, and central to their experience is the formation of the whole person. It is our intent to develop our student-athletes into transformational leaders for life.

So much of our success is directly related to the support of our steadfast community of alumni, parents and friends—who believe a strong athletic program, paired with Stonehill’s tradition of academic excellence, only serves to augment the College’s rank and reputation.

Join Stonehill President Fr. John Denning, C.S.C. to hear about life at the College as we celebrate our 76th academic year
