A Nation at a Crossroads. A Mission to Restore.
America’s founding principles—rooted in faith, virtue, and liberty—are under siege. Secular ideologies threaten religious freedom and the moral foundation of our republic. At Belmont Abbey College, we are answering this crisis with a bold vision to restore our culture, defend our freedoms, and form principled leaders who will save our country while faithfully serving the Church.Guided by our 1,500-year Benedictine tradition, Belmont Abbey is taking the fight for faith to the heart of our nation with Belmont House, our new outpost just 500 feet from the U.S. Capitol—the closest Catholic organization to the center of American governance. Your support today will empower us to shape public policy, form faithful leaders, and renew America’s moral compass.
Belmont House: A Catholic Voice on Capitol Hill
Located steps from the U.S. Capitol, Belmont House is a beacon of faith in the public square. This bold initiative brings Catholic moral leadership to the heart of American governance through:
- Policy Influence: Convening thought leaders to shape public policy with the wisdom of the Catholic intellectual tradition.
- Community and Fellowship: Fostering dynamic networks of faithful Catholics in media, politics, and culture to defend religious liberty.
- Intentional Catholic Student Residency Program: Launching in fall 2025, this first-of-its-kind program will provide Catholic undergraduates interning in Washington, D.C., with affordable housing and a faithful community near Belmont House, preparing them to lead with courage and conviction.
Belmont House is uniquely positioned to amplify the voice of the Church where it matters most. Your generosity will make this vision a reality.
Our Mission: Forming Leaders for Christ and Country
For nearly 150 years, Belmont Abbey College has been a cornerstone of Catholic liberal arts education, shaping souls and minds to live virtuously and lead courageously.

- Defend religious liberty and America’s founding principles.
- Restore faith and virtue in the public square.
- Transform our culture for the glory of God.
