THANK YOU from the 2016 Senior Gift Committee!

May 10, 2016

Our "Pass the Hat" campaign results are in – 119 gifts, $2,589.00 raised! Your donations will fund Duquesne University’s student organizations, study abroad scholarships, library outlets and many more areas donors chose to support. Because of your generosity, we are able to leave a lasting legacy and improve the Duquesne experience.

We are excited to report that this year’s "Pass the Hat" campaign nearly TRIPLED last year’s dollar amount. The Class of 2016 now challenges the Class of 2017 to beat our incredibly successful campaign.

Thank you again!

Buford's Event Time Change

Thank you again for making a gift to the 2016 Pass the Hat campaign. We are only 30 donors away from our goal!

We hope you will join the Senior Gift Committee this evening, May 2nd, for the donor reception at Buford's Kitchen. 

Please note: tonight's event has been changed to 8:30pm due to the Penguins playoff game. 

Enjoy free appetizers, discounted spiked milkshakes, and a cash bar. The first 50 seniors to arrive will receive a FREE spiked milkshake!

Only seniors who donated to the Pass the Hat Campaign may attend, so be sure to encourage your friends to give. It’ll go a long way in helping us reach our goal. Make sure to direct them to www.spirit.duq.edu/seniorgiving2016 and remind them that they can designate what their donation will fund at Duquesne.

Thanks again for your support! See you tonight.

We Have Reached Over 50% of Our Goal! Please Help Spread the Word!

February 19, 2016

Thanks to your generous support, were able to reach more than 50% of our overall goal on the first day of the “Pass the Hat” campaign!

While the committee is incredibly proud and excited about this success, we still need more members of the Class of 2016 to help make an impact before graduation. Please help us spread the word!

If you could take a moment to promote the campaign on social media or encourage your friends and parents to give, it’ll go a long way in helping us reach our goal. Make sure to direct them to www.spirit.duq.edu/seniorgiving2016 and remind them how they can designate what their donation will fund at Duquesne.

There are many fun events coming throughout our last semester, so stay tuned for details!
