CAMPAIGN FINAL REPORT
Ave Maria University launched the Building on Faith Comprehensive Campaign in the fall of 2013 to raise $60 million in cash contributions to fund strategic priorities of the University. Five years later, the University is celebrating the achievement of this significant goal in conjunction with the opening of the Thomas and Selby Prince Building. Funds raised for the Prince Building helped Ave Maria not only achieve its ambitious goal, which was based strictly on cash receipts and did not include pledges, but provided a world-class facility supporting some of the highest priorities of the University. The Prince Building is a 38,000 square foot facility that includes the 400-seat O’Bryan Performance Hall, the Donahue Family Blackbox Theatre, the nursing program and laboratories, the Mother Teresa Museum, the Enrollment Office, classrooms and faculty offices.
T O TA L F U N D S R A I S E D Over 11,000 donors made over 55,000 gifts to the campaign. Trustees of the University contributed over $20 million towards the strategic objectives of the University. A broad base of friends, parents, and alumni have helped make an Ave Maria education possible through their dedication to Our Lady’s University.
