What SCU students say

“Every little bit counts! When more alumni give back to the University, students can continue to have great experiences here. Thank you to everyone who makes a gift—and makes a difference!”
—Rachel Manfré, Class of 2009 Student Body President

“I know that many of the opportunities I’ve had at SCU are due to alumni like you who have donated to the Santa Clara Fund. Your gifts helped fund the scholarship that brought me to California and also helped support academic programs I’ve benefited from. All in all, the Santa Clara Fund made it possible for me to enjoy my SCU education and experiences that I’ll remember and cherish for the rest of my life.”
—Nick Schwanz, Class of 2009

“As a recipient of the Santa Clara Immersion Fund Scholarship, I would like to thank you for supporting students like me. Attending Santa Clara has been an amazing opportunity and I am grateful for the generous support of donors like you.”
—Alana Sampson, Class of 2010

“Goodness begets goodness, generosity begets generosity, kindness begets kindness. There are so many incredible students and alumni from Santa Clara whose greatness, generosity, and kindness have inspired me to be who I am today. This community has challenged me to understand friendship, solidarity, social justice, love, and education. I look forward to becoming part of the alumni family as well as continuing the tradition of supporting future generations of Santa Clara students.”
—Austin Woody, Class of 2008 Student Body President
