DES and Philanthropy, 2013

The FY 2013 DES Philanthropy report is final.  You were all most generous - our students thank you.

Highlights of DES giving FY2013:

• Total raised for The DePaul Emeritus Society Scholarship this year: $16,893.  The most raised in one year.
• 95 DES members generously supported the philanthropy efforts.
• Office of Mission and Values, for the second year, matched up to $15,000 of the money raised
• With this matching gift and $3,155 in earnings from the principal of the endowed scholarship fund, we were able to give 7 scholarships during Spring Quarter, 2013.  Most scholarships were in the $2,000 - $2,500 range.
• Including the DES Scholarship gifts, retirees gave more than $250,000 to the University this year.
• The DES Scholarship's current principal balance is now in excess of $90,000.

Read some comments from this year's scholarship recipients.

The Mission and Values Office committed to a three-year, matching grant of $15,000 per year.  This is year three. Let's exceed the $15,000 again!

Thanks to all who support DePaul University and its students.
