GIVE TO MISSION & MINISTRY

Through your donations, we are able to develop new strategies to meet the evolving needs of the campus, church, and local community, while embracing ever more fully the promise of Santa Clara University’s Jesuit Catholic mission.

MAKE YOUR GIFT TODAY

 


Donations to the individual departments which comprise Mission and Ministry enable us to engage students, faculty, staff, alumni, and benefactors in deeper education and ongoing formation, helping these groups to make the mission their own and apply it concretely to their work and life.

CAMPUS MINISTRY

Your gift to Campus Ministry will further our mission to foster the spiritual lives of all SCU students. By providing opportunities that nurture spiritual growth and foster meaningful connections — such as vibrant Catholic liturgies, celebrations of our diverse spiritual traditions, and transformative retreat experiences — Campus Ministry sustains the bonds of community, faith, and service that define SCU's Jesuit mission.

IGNATIAN CENTER

Your gift to the Ignatian Center for Jesuit Education will further promote and enhance SCU's distinctively Jesuit, Catholic tradition of education by providing students with community-engaged learning opportunities — such as immersion trips and fellowships with local and global partners — and delivering thought-provoking conversations on scholarship, spirituality, and justice for faculty and staff.

MISSION CHURCH
Mission Church Interior

Your gift to the Santa Clara Mission Church will help us keep this sacred historical monument — the eighth of the original California Missions, and the beating liturgical heart of SCU today — vibrant and welcoming to all for generations to come. Support for its ministry and maintenance nourishes SCU’s religious and spiritual life, and provides an ongoing space for campus conversations on our relationship with the Ohlone and Muwekma-Ohlone peoples who first inhabited this land.
