The college announced an anonymous $4 million matching challenge at commencement on May 17, and will have four years to match the gift. It is the largest gift in the college’s history. The funds are restricted and must be used for the creation of the success center.

Overall, the gift will impact as many as 1,600 undergraduate students every year, plus recent graduates. More than 80 percent of Thomas More College’s 10,000+ alumni network reside, work and raise their families in the Northern Kentucky/Greater Cincinnati region.
