2025 Celebration of Generosity
Event details
Date: October 16, 2025
The evening is truly a celebration of the countless ways our alumni, donors, and friends are making a difference on our campus and beyond. It also brings together students who have benefited from this generosity, drawing inspiration from everyone in the room.
Donors groups include members of:
Each College honors a Distinguished Alumni and an Emerging Leader who exemplify the values and achievements of a St. Ambrose education. Dedicated to lifelong learning and academic excellence, these Ambrosians lead with purpose, serving ethically and intentionally both in the region and across the nation.
It's a celebration! The suggested dress code for the event is semi-formal. For some that means a cocktail dress and a coat and tie. But it's also an excuse to dress to the nines and wear that dress you bought and have only worn once or to brush off the great three-piece suit! We'll be delighted to enjoy the evening with you either way.
Dinner will include appetizers, salad, plated meal and dessert. Final selection will be announced later this summer.
By sponsoring a student at the Celebration of Generosity, you'll connect the dots between their education and the generosity of others. They'll remember this when they are alumni and ready to support St. Ambrose!
