Celebrate ‘One Day One SMC’ Today!
This day of giving for Saint Mary’s is 1,863 minutes on March 12–13, in honor of the College’s founding year. It’s a chance to come together, supporting student scholarships, and the programs that empower current and future Gaels.
Today is the day for One Day One SMC, a day to celebrate everything that is Saint Mary’s! For over a decade, this tradition has allowed the community to come together and support current and future Gaels. This year’s event will take place from March 12–13, spanning 1,863 minutes—a nod to the College’s founding year.
Today’s the Day!
Would you like to make a gift now? There’s no need to wait. The official One Day One SMC event occurs from 8 a.m. on March 12 to 3 p.m. on March 13. Help support annual scholarships and a broad range of programs that elevate Saint Mary’s student experience. You can direct toward the annual scholarship fund or dozens of other specific areas, from academic programs to club sports to the performing arts.
Every gift makes a difference, no matter the size. And on One Day One SMC this year, we’re aiming to have 1,863 individuals make a gift. That’s not all: An anonymous donor has agreed to give $10,000 if 100 donors are reached in the first hour.
The fact that so many Gaels, past and present, near and far, offer their support on this day is a testament to Saint Mary’s legacy of offering transformative, empowering education. Together, we can continue to realize that mission and make the SMC experience possible for generations to come.
