Sustaining Greatness and Goodness: Announcing the 2025-26 SD Fund
San Domenico’s 175th anniversary isn’t just a milestone — it’s a living reminder that what began in 1850 still persists on our campus today.
This year, we’re inviting our whole community to come along on a story that spans generations: a story of teachers who inspire, friendships that last, and values that endure. Each week, we’ll share scenes that capture the essence of San Domenico — including the small, beautiful, everyday moments that show how our mission lives on.
The SD Fund powers every one of these moments. It turns ideas into action and provides the resources that let our students, faculty, and programs flourish today. As we celebrate this anniversary, we invite you to join us in building on the legacy that connects every chapter of SD’s story.
Your gift to the SD Fund ensures that our revolutionary spark stays alive today, and for the next 175 years.
