The Stella Maris Institute Founders' Club
Support something bold
Join The Founders' Club
We are looking for financial partners in mission as we launch the Stella Maris Institute. Members of the Founders’ Club will help to fund key renovations to Stievenard Hall on the St. Bernadette Campus. Stievenard, the physical home for the Institute, will house an inspiring, multi-purpose presentation space, coffee bar, kitchenette, and library — all geared to supporting adult formation. The Founders’ Club will also seed an operating budget for the Institute, allowing us to offer excellent programming and to bring in subject matter experts to provide quality adult formation for our parishioners.
