The Blue Demon Challenge (BDC) is DePaul University's annual day of giving, when alumni, parents, students, faculty, staff and friends come together to give back—and this year we're raising our sights again! Your gift of any size during the BDC can help us get closer to reaching our goal of raising $7,000,000 in a single day!
A gift to The Theatre School (TTS) is a special opportunity to honor your DePaul education and support current and future hardworking, dedicated students in their studies and as they prepare for a future in the performing arts. During the Blue Demon Challenge, your gift to TTS can go even further:
- THE THEATRE SCHOOL CHALLENGE: When we receive 75 gifts to any fund in The Theatre School, Exelon, together with a group of leaders from the Dean's advisory board, will give $31,000!
- THE THEATRE SCHOOL SCHOLARSHIP CHALLENGE: When we receive 25 gifts to any scholarship fund in The Theatre School, Susan and Peter Strauss will give $25,000 to the Lucille G. Strauss and Alan Peters Scholarship!
- SIERACKI EMERGENCY FUND CHALLENGE: When we receive 10 gifts to the Sieracki Emergency Loan Fund in The Theatre School, the Sieracki family will give $5,000 to the fund!
We also have challenges for faculty/staff, student, and parent giving—check out the Challenges page to see all the ways your giving can impact DePaul today!
