The Saint Mary’s College Chicago East Alumnae Club had a great year of events, service, networking, happy hours, camaraderie, and giving back.

Thank you to all the Belles who attended game watches, caught up over happy hour, donated to the SMC Chicago East Club Endowed Scholarship, read along with the book club, paid dues and attended our two annual fundraisers, Spring Spirits and Founders’ Day.

If you weren’t able to attend an event this year, we hope to see you at one in 2025! If you’d like to join club leadership or have an idea for an event, please contact us.

Check out our brief video recap and read on to see the Saint Mary’s College Chicago East Alumnae Club 2024 Year in Review.

Thank you to Sarah ‘07 and Chiara ‘98 who generously hosted Spring Spirits and the First Year Send Off. Thank you to everyone who supported the Club by paying dues, donating items to our auction/raffle, participating in events and opening your home to your fellow Belles. We couldn’t do it without you!
