Bishop McMullen Legacy Circle

The Bishop McMullen Legacy Circle was established in 1978 to recognize individuals who have included the university in their estate plans or made major commitments to endowment growth. Organizations that have made contributions are also honored. From more than 100 charter members, the Bishop McMullen Legacy Circle has grown to include more than 1,000 benefactors.

Legacy Circle ceremonies are held on campus each year to honor those benefactors and to give special recognition to new members. The St. Ambrose community also remembers the many unnamed individuals who helped preserve the institution through the years prior to the establishment of the Bishop McMullen Legacy Circle.

Membership in the Bishop McMullen Legacy Circle recognizes donors who make a prominent investment to the Endowment Fund (gifts of $50,000 or more) or who notify St. Ambrose of their intentions to make provisions for the University in their estate plans. Such provisions may include bequests, trusts, life insurance policies, annuities, securities, gifts of property, or other methods of planned giving.
