“Time after time, members of the President’s Circle have allowed the University to turn aspiration into action.”
Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C.,
Notre Dame President
President's Circle
Bound by their shared commitment to Notre Dame, members of the President's Circle assist Fr. John Jenkins, University president, in advancing Notre Dame's distinctive mission: to seek God, study the world, and serve humanity.
Their contributions are designated, at Fr. Jenkins' behest, toward those immediate and long-term priorities that speak to Notre Dame's unique calling among American universities.
With an annual unrestricted gift of $25,000 or more, members of the President's Circle stand with Fr. Jenkins in addressing critical needs: the libraries, financial aid, Catholic character, service initiatives, and a host of other essential priorities.
