Gasson

Gasson Circle — $10,000 to $24,999

Named for Boston College’s 13th president, Thomas I. Gasson, S.J., the Gasson Circle honors donors who are catalysts for change. When BC outgrew their space in the South End of Boston, then-president Rev. Thomas I. Gasson, S.J., bought 31 acres of the former Lawrence Farm in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, and broke ground in 1909 on a new campus, today fondly known as “the Heights.”

Gasson Circle donors aspire to new heights and support BC with an annual gift of $10,000 to $24,999, deepening their philanthropic impact and engagement with BC.

Boston College, and more specifically AHANA, afforded me the opportunity to thrive. I was given the chance to learn from diverse cultures and understand the difference between what's right and what's righteous. This education shaped my life, and I want to ensure AHANA will be there for those who come after me.
