Since our 1923 founding by the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet, Fontbonne University has always looked for the best ways to educate our students while looking to the future. While some things never change, such as the need for scholarships, there always will be a need to support programs such as cutting-edge research and award-winning fine arts, among many other aspects of life at a university. Fontbonne frequently engages in fund-raising campaigns to satisfy a specific need, either on the campus, for our students or within our campus community.
To learn more about current fund-raising campaigns, please contact our Annual Giving team at (314) 889-4712 or annualgiving@fontbonne.edu.
Nearly 87 percent of Fontbonne students receive financial aid every year. To our students, every dollar provides for their future.
When you support Fontbonne scholarships, you invest in a mission-centered and values-based, Catholic education for people who otherwise could not afford it. Your generosity creates graduates who will go forth and serve the dear neighbor without distinction for life. Today’s students are tomorrow’s leaders. Invest in our future today.
Annual gifts to Fontbonne University’s Annual Fund provide a sustainable source of revenue used for advancing our mission.
Thanks to the generosity of our alumni, faculty, staff, parents and friends, Fontbonne continues to thrive in building participation through yearly investments to support the most pressing priorities of our mission.
You can enjoy multiple benefits when you make a gift of stock, mutual funds or other securities to Fontbonne University. Donating these types of gifts has many tax benefits for the donor, and is a great way to give back to Fontbonne University.

Fontbonne University seeks investment partners committed to the education of tomorrow’s workforce. Investors will join Fontbonne’s new Philanthropic Venture Capital Initiative. The purpose of this initiative is solely for the formation, expansion and enhancement of new or existing academic programs.
This initiative aligns with the university’s 2016-2021 strategic plan. Fontbonne has a goal to ensure the quality and viability of our academic programs.
