Annual gifts to Canisius are vital to the future of the university and honor the commitment we have made to current Griffins. Support from the Canisius community provides resources that support all facets of a Canisius education by providing essential funding for scholarships, academic and athletic excellence and distinguished learning experiences that animate our Jesuit educational mission.
Where Gifts Are Needed
A Canisius education has never been more relevant or more needed than it is today.
During these challenging times, your annual support is so important. Annual current-use gifts make an indescribable difference for the university and our students. Whether you support the Canisius Fund - the area of greatest need, the Blue & Gold Athletics Fund, academic programs of excellence, or initiatives that fuel our Jesuit mission, you are having an immediate and lasting impact on our students and the university.
Annual donors play an important role in making the transformational Canisius education possible - and accessible to every deserving student who wants to make the kind of difference only a Canisius graduate can. The world needs Canisius graduates, perhaps now more than ever, and Canisius needs you.
Our 2024-25 annual campaign concludes on May 31, 2025.
Canisius Fund - Area of Greatest Need
A gift to the Canisius Fund is invaluable and powerful. Gifts to the Canisius Fund sustain everything that makes a Canisius education distinctive: the Jesuit values, the spirit of the Canisius family during athletic contests, the transformative learning experiences, and our commitment to instilling in current Griffins excellence, service and leadership.
