The Richard Ryscavage, S.J. Fund for Student Success

The Rev. Richard Ryscavage, SJ Fund for Student Success honors the legacy of a leader who championed human dignity, the common good, and global solidarity. As founding director of the Center for Faith and Public Life (now the Center for Social Impact), Fr. Rick believed every student deserved full access to Fairfield’s transformative education. Your gift carries that belief forward by removing financial barriers and covering essential expenses such as tuition, room and board, and books—allowing students to focus on learning, engagement, and impact.

"Getting this scholarship has made a huge difference in my life. The scholarship helped me not just with part of my tuition but opened new opportunities and allowed me to focus on my education and personal growth. I'm really grateful for this chance, and I hope that more people like me get this opportunity as well."
