Your financial support ensures that the Collegium Institute can fulfill its vital mission of sharing the Catholic intellectual tradition with the next generation of leaders.   Every dollar that we receive from donors enables us to leaven fields of scholarship and contemporary university culture as a whole.  Your gift in any amount will make a difference.  Collegium Institute is a non-profit organization, and all donations are tax deductible.
