Holy Cross is thriving because generations of Crusaders took it upon themselves to make the College’s mission their mission. Like these remarkable alumni, each contributor seizes the opportunity to make a difference, to support the College, to become part of a world-changing story, and to celebrate the College’s 175 years of impact.
On January 25 at 6:00 a.m. – January 26, at 11:59 p.m., join us in celebrating 175 years of Holy Cross Difference Makers. For every 1,000 donors, the College will receive $250,000 from a generous group of alumni and parents.
GIVE to help prepare today’s students for lives of impact. SHARE and invite your friends to participate. BE a Difference Maker.
THANK YOU for supporting Holy Cross during our 175th anniversary challenge: Celebrating Difference Makers. Today’s Holy Cross students make a difference in the classroom, in the community, and in the world around them. With each new graduating class, the College’s impact on the world grows.
We're thrilled to have this completed piece of community art to celebrate our Difference Makers—YOU!
We’ve reached 5,500 donors and unlocked a total of $1.5 million during the Celebrating Difference Makers challenge.
To conclude our 1.75 days and fittingly celebrate the College’s 175th anniversary, our generous challenge group will bring their gift to $1.75 million to see how far we can go.
2145 days ago by Kerri SaucierWe are at 5,000 donors and have now unlocked a total of $1.25 million in challenge money from a generous group of alumni and parents.
Our next goal is to add 500 donors for $250,000 more.
Why does participation in giving matter? Each generation has given back to ensure the future for the next. Holy Cross is great because alumni, parents and friends have made the College’s mission their mission for 175 years.
In 2018, US News and World Report listed Holy Cross eighth in the nation for Alumni Participation in Giving alongside schools like Princeton, Williams, Amherst, and Bowdoin.
Let’s keep our proud tradition going for today’s students--tomorrow’s Difference Makers.
Share that you gave. Challenge your friends. Multiply your impact. Be a difference maker.
4,000 donors and 11 hours to go! Our next goal is 5,000 donors!
The excitement continues on Mount St. James with just 11 hours left in the HC 175: Celebrating Difference Makers challenge!
Our donors and volunteers are doing a tremendous job—and we have momentum on our side.
Additional advocate incentives were just posted, so let’s keep the energy high.
Please keep spreading the word and sharing our #HolyCross175 story!

As part of the celebration on campus, we are creating a mosaic of Fenwick Hall comprised of thousands of photos of people who make this college great. The original artwork will be on display for the rest of our 175th anniversary year.
Participating is simple. First, GIVE to prepare students for lives of impact. Then, SNAP a photo on public Instagram or Twitter accounts. TAG it with #HolyCross175, and your photo will become part of the mosaic. If you do not wish to post publicly, you can text your photo to 814-205-9973.
