Please join us in congratulating William Mitchell, who has accepted the role of Associate Director, Athletics Annual Giving on the Annual Giving Team! We know that William will have an incredible impact on the lives of our Notre Dame student-athletes and athletics benefactors as he works to grow the Rockne Athletics Fund.

William will be focused on stewarding, renewing, upgrading, and recruiting Rockne Gold, Blue, Green, and Fund level donors and will work to further the collaboration between the Rockne Athletics Fund and the Monogram Club.

William brought a unique skill set to the Development Administration team, and he will be missed – especially his smile and his culinary insights! However, we think he has found his niche with Rockne.

William began his career at Notre Dame in Annual Giving working with Patti McLaughlin in the Law School Annual Fund where he exceeded expectations. He then joined Michael McLaughlin soon after and Michael’s daily experience at Notre Dame was always strengthened by William’s work ethic and conviction to make a positive impact. He will be an exceptional addition to the Athletics Advancement and Annual Giving teams.

He will start his new role on July 24. Congratulations, William, and Go Irish!

– Kim Borza, Michael McLaughlin, and Marilyn Bassett-Lance
