The Blue Demon Challenge has ended, but you can still make a difference for DePaul students!
College of Education
Today is the Blue Demon Challenge: Give Now!

Today is the Blue Demon Challenge, DePaul University's day of giving, when alumni, parents, friends, students, faculty and staff come together to give back—and this year, our Challenge is bigger than ever! Your gift of any size can help us get one step closer to reaching our biggest goal yet: raising $5,000,000 in a single day!

The College of Education prepares extraordinary educators characterized by their exceptional understanding of leading practices in education, their belief in the importance of individual dignity and personal responsibility, and their desire to be lifelong learners. During the Blue Demon Challenge, your gift to the College of Education can go even further: 

  • College of Education Challenge: If we receive 100 gifts to the College of Education, Oliver Debe (BUS '13, MED '17) and Adam Billingsley will commit $50,000 to create the Oliver W. Debe and Adam J. Billingsley Counseling and Educational Leadership Endowed Scholarship in the College of Education!

Today, you can help DePaul make history while making a DePaul education a reality for talented and deserving students. Give now!
