Your leadership and desire to help others pursue their dreams
and goals is an expression of kindness and a reflection of the
valuable connection you have with St. John’s University. This
passion and commitment is evident through your decision to invest
in St. John’s, making a lasting and positive impact on the
educational experience of our students.
Here are some expressions of their gratitude:
“If I am able to assist someone in the future who needs my
assistance, it would give me great pleasure and pride to know that
I have fulfilled their dreams. I am very grateful for this
assistance. I promise to use this scholarship to allow myself
to advance in my education and work to the fullest of my potential.
My goal is not only to advance in my education but to improve the
quality of life of the disabled; and give them hope, faith, and
understanding.
Words cannot express the gratitude towards your kind contribution,
my family and I will be forever grateful. I hope to one day be able
to endow a scholarship to help more students fulfill their dreams
just as you have done.”

“I am very grateful to those who are willing to help students
through college. Sometimes, the academic journey isn't so long, but
the financial journey takes a lot longer to complete. Luckily,
there are scholarships, such as the James J. and Martin McDonald
Scholarship Fund, that are available to those students who truly
need and deserve a little support.”
