Seminarian Benefactors Guild

Support a seminarian with your monthly gift

The Seminarian Benefactors Guild at Notre Dame Seminary provides a unique opportunity for donors to make a lasting impact through regular, monthly donations. By committing to a monthly donation, supporters help ensure a steady and reliable stream of funding that sustains the seminary’s mission of forming future priests and lay leaders. This consistent support allows the seminary to better plan and manage resources, enhancing educational programs, maintaining facilities, and supporting seminarians in their spiritual and academic journeys. Monthly giving is a convenient and powerful way to make a significant difference over time. We invite you to consider joining this dedicated community of benefactors and help shape the future of the Church with your ongoing generosity!
