Why We Give: Share Your Memories

Throughout the remainder of our school year, our alumnae newsletter will feature stories from our alumnae, Partners in Education, legacy family members, scholarship benefactors, and community members. Everyone has a story of why they love AHN and how they continue to donate their time, talents, and treasure to our school.


Please email me if you would like to be featured in one of our upcoming issues and on social media!

"Having the privilege to attend Holy Names is something I will forever be grateful for. Knowing I wanted our children to have the same experience I did, I knew it would be a challenge to convince my husband of the 'why'. Once he visited the school and our girls started attending, he saw confidence, courage, lifelong friendships, faith formation, amazing academic opportunities, and athletic programs that he was in awe of. He told me 'Holy Names is more than a prep school; this place prepares you for life.' When he passed unexpectedly in 2022, our family established a Scholarship in his memory to work to provide these same opportunities to other young women."

Sponsors Needed for Induction Ceremony

More than half of our seniors have chosen a sponsor for our annual Senior Alumnae Induction Ceremony: either one of their legacy family members, former SJNM, or alumnae from our community. There are still a few seniors who are looking for a sponsor and they have asked me to reach out to our alumnae community.


If you are interested in being a part of this special event on Tuesday, May 20, please email me and let me know.

AHN Heading to D.C.

Hello! My name is Betsy Bennett and I am a proud member of the Holy Names Class of 2009! Holy Names continues to play an important part in my life, even well after graduation. I am excited to host the upcoming AHN on the Move in the D.C. area on March 20 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. This will be a great opportunity to connect with alumnae and the Holy Names Institutional Advancement Team.
