Strategic Initiatives

This academic year marks the 125th anniversary of The Bonaventure Fund! Since its beginning in 1888 by Fr. Joe Butler, O.F.M., The Bonaventure Fund has been the primary vehicle through which our alumni have supported their alma mater. In fact, the university is the top choice for alumni support today, exceeding the national benchmark by nearly 2:1. Your support of The Bonaventure Fund helps fuel learning, compassion and innovation on campus. Learn more about how you can make an impact through The Bonaventure Fund.

After two years of planning, St. Bonaventure University's Strategic Plan for Athletics has identified critical needs of $18.8 million in athletics facilities construction, renovations and enhancements. These renovations will signify a new level of commitment to St. Bonaventure University Athletics.  Learn more and be a part of this exciting new initiative.

Students are our first priority. We are committed to helping young men and women throughout their intellectual, spiritual and personal journeys. Often, this help begins with offering qualified students much-needed financial assistance. For some, this assistance provides the only route to a university education. For others, it means being able to focus more on studies and less on jobs to generate needed income.

When you give to St. Bonaventure’s endowment, you create a permanent legacy of support. Your gift is invested and the earnings allow the university to meet the needs of our constituents, with a special emphasis on the students we serve. Learn more about giving to Endowment.
