Gasson Circle 鈥� $10,000 to $24,999
Named for Boston College鈥檚 13th president, Thomas I. Gasson, S.J., the Gasson Circle honors donors who are catalysts for change. When 蜜桃传媒 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 鈥渢he Heights.鈥�
Gasson Circle donors aspire to new heights and support 蜜桃传媒 with an annual gift of $10,000 to $24,999, deepening their philanthropic impact and engagement with 蜜桃传媒.

“Boston College, and more specifically AHANA, afforded me the opportunity to thrive.
