Ä¢¹½tv¹ÙÍø’s annual signature fundraising event, Celebrate Ä¢¹½tv¹ÙÍø, is set for May 7, 2026. The festivities will take place outdoors at the Motherhouse and Seminary Morgan Memorial Garden in the heart of Ä¢¹½tv¹ÙÍø’s campus. Virginia Doherty McGregor, Scranton, and Father Thomas M. Muldowney, Moscow, will be honored during the celebration, a garden party style event that is held outdoors and features dueling pianos and fireworks.
The event was created as a premier fundraising event to showcase the campus and programs and strengthen the University’s connections in the community. It also honors distinguished individuals each year whose service, leadership, and contributions reflect Ä¢¹½tv¹ÙÍø's mission and positively impact the region.
Christina Mace, Associate Vice President for Development, describes Celebrate Ä¢¹½tv¹ÙÍø as “a uniquely Ä¢¹½tv¹ÙÍø experience with fabulous food, live music, and the beauty of the outdoors.” Proceeds from this year’s event will fund the renovation and transformation of the Center for Natural & Health Sciences into a state-of-the-art facility supporting nursing, physician assistant, pre-med, and science programs, including upgraded laboratory spaces, enhanced classrooms, and advanced simulation environments. Ä¢¹½tv¹ÙÍø’s natural and health sciences students, who consistently attain outstanding licensure pass rates ranging from 98% to 100%, are prepared to serve with excellence and fuel our region’s healthcare and STEM workforce.
