Our biggest and boldest fundraising effort in the history of Hill-Murray!
With your support, Hill-Murray will advance our journey as the preeminent destination for students and faculty in the Twin Cities. Together, we will fulfill our strategic goals and remain grounded in our Benedictine and Lasallian Catholic traditions.
Campaign Priorities
Aligned with our Go Boldly strategic plan, Believe. Belong. Be Bold. aims to raise $40 million in four crucial areas over five years. The campaign’s success helps to strengthen Hill-Murray’s future, ensuring our continued ability to serve students for generations to come.
Annual Giving
Gifts to the Annual Fund are the foundation of philanthropic community support, impacting every aspect of a Pioneer education – from learning and faith; activities, arts, and athletics; and to technology, campus and security.
Tuition Assistance
35% of the student body receives assistance and over $2.1M is awarded annually.
Distributed in three ways:
- Friends of Hill-Murray (pooled funds)
- Annually-funded scholarships
- Endowed scholarships (often named in honor of people/families or “class of” years.)
Legacy Giving
Demonstrate your passion by investing in Hill-Murray and its students. Create a plan for your gift that fulfills your personal intentions and objectives to designate Hill-Murray as a sole or partial beneficiary of your will, trust, bequest, retirement account, life insurance, appreciated securities, charitable annuity, or other financial instruments.
Capital Improvements
To support our student population growth and innovation, over 10,000 sqft of indoor and outdoor spaces on the west side of campus are planned. These additions will create flexible spaces for dining, collaborative learning, and socializing.
