Today is the Blue Demon Challenge: Give Now!

There is so much to life at DePaul!

In addition to degree programs in our ten colleges and schools, DePaul offers many ways for our students to participate, build and grow their community. DePaul is committed to enriching student learning and the student experience outside of the classroom, both on campus and in the Chicago community, through a wide variety of programs, events, leadership opportunities and quality support services.

DePaul offers opportunities for every student to get involved. In addition to social and recreational activities, these organizations offer students a chance to learn and develop leadership skills that will continue to benefit them long after they leave campus. Our faith-based groups allow students to gather in fellowship or in faith to explore our Catholic, Vincentian heritage or their own faith traditions. And, of course, students of all faiths (or none) come together in service to our larger Chicago community. During the Blue Demon Challenge, your gift to Life at DePaul can go even further in the following ways:

  • Scholarships and Financial Aid:  Help unlock thousands of dollars from generous donors with your gift to the General Scholarship Fund, the Finish Line Fund, or the Monarch Butterfly Scholarship!
  • Emergency Assistance: Your gift to the Basic Needs Hub or the Student Emergency Assistance Fund will help students who are most in need. Today, you gift will also help unlock thousands of dollars in challenge funds!
  • The Career Center Challenge: If 40 people make a gift to the Fund for the Career Center, you’ll unlock $40,000 from Wintrust!
  • Commencement Regalia Challenge: Just 20 people are needed to help us unlock an extraordinary gift: Herff Jones will donate 100 gowns to students in need, so they can look their best at commencement! Barnes & Noble College will assist with distribution of these gowns. Give to the Fund for DePaul University Events to help unlock this challenge!
  • The Society of Vincent de Paul Professors Challenge: If 15 people make a gift to this fund, you’ll help unlock $5,000 from an anonymous donor! Support exemplary teaching, service and scholarship with your gift today!
  • And much more!

 

Your gift will ensure students have the support they need to advance their growth outside of the classroom. Give today!
