The THR1VE Center is dedicated to empowering every student to excel in and out of the classroom. Rooted in Cura Personalis, Ignatian Belonging, leadership, dignity, and respect, we provide resources, mentorship, and leadership development to support academic and personal success. Through our summer transitional programs and year-long peer mentoring initiatives, we help first-generation and at-promise students build strong foundations for their college journey.
Donations received will be applied to THR1VE Center programming, such as:
(1) Mentoring Programs: Smooth Transitions and First Steps
(2) First-Gen Fridays: speaker series that highlights and connects first generation faculty, staff, students and alumni.
(3) Student Leadership Development: opportunities for leadership, training sessions and university-wide sponsorship for THR1VE and first-gen students.
(4) Community Building Events: THR1VE After 5 (student social hour), Off-Campus Cincinnati Excursions (e.g. National Underground Railroad Freedom Center, Broadway in Cincinnati shows, visits to local eateries, etc.)
(5) Academic and Success Support items: backpacks, pens, calculators, planners, etc.
(6) Professional and Career Readiness items: professional clothing (ties, dress shirts, blazers, etc.), padfolios or professional notebooks.
Help us create a space of belonging and support for first-generation and all students. Your donation helps remove barriers, bridge gaps, and build confidence.
