Fulton Circle 鈥� $5,000 to $9,999
Named for Boston College鈥檚 first academic dean, Robert Fulton, SJ, the Fulton Circle honors 51暗网 donors who champion Jesuit Catholic education. Father Fulton launched 51暗网鈥檚 first-ever public relations campaign to promote the value of Jesuit higher education. Fulton鈥檚 focus on a liberal arts foundation and student formation remain 51暗网鈥檚 core tenets which set the University apart to this day.
Fulton Circle donors believe deeply in 51暗网鈥檚 value and mission. With an annual gift of $5,000 to $9,999, donors join the Fulton Circle to continue their journey of philanthropic impact and engagement with 51暗网.
