Thank You

Student Thank You

From the classroom to the boardroom, your kitchen table to your parish hall, you are Notre Dame to the world. Your good works and generosity ensure that the mission entrusted to us by Father Sorin 167 years ago will be passed on and on. Thank you.

You Are ND!

“I have discovered myself here under the golden dome; as a student, as a Catholic, as a member of the Band of the Fighting Irish, as a member of the Notre Dame family, and as a person. Thank you a thousand times over for your generous scholarship donations, without which I would not have been able to afford these blessings.”

Adam Hansmann (‘10)
“Most of what we experience here at Notre Dame would be impossible without the help of so many other people. There are many things at Notre Dame that perhaps only in hindsight I will appreciate. However, I would like to extend my thanks to the many donors who have continued to make the Notre Dame experience possible for me and future generations.”

“I have grown so much in the past three years at Notre Dame, and now have the opportunity to serve as a resident asssitant in my dorm to help welcome and support my fellow students just as I have been. I am truly blessed to attend Our Lady’s University and am extremely grateful for your generous donations which have made it possible, thank you!”

Adjoa Andoh (‘10)
“I just wanted to let you know how much your gift to the annual fund impacts the lives of students at the University. I am one of those students who would not be able to come here without the help of financial aid. Your continued support allows me and many other students to realize their dream of attending this prestigious university. Thank you for your support for the University of Notre Dame, and thank you for making my dream come true!”

“As a caller at the Development Phone Center, I have had the pleasure of speaking to many alumni on the phone over the past year. The enthusiasm and love for ND shown by our alumni never fails to amaze me. In many cases, it has been years since you have been a student here and yet you still feel compelled to give back. This is truly a testament to the spirit of Notre Dame that I heard so much about before I came here but only now am beginning to realize fully. Thank you for your amazing generosity. Thank you for allowing so many students, including myself to attend ND through financial aid and scholarships. Finally, thank you for wanting to make ND better for the students who have come after you- your help makes Notre Dame the special place that it is.”
