Our "Pass the Hat" campaign ends Wednesday! We only need 49 more donations to beat the "Pass the Hat" record set by the Class of 2016!

To help make this happen please encourage your fellow classmates to visit www.spirit.duq.edu/seniorgiving2017 and make a $5 gift to their favorite school, organization or sports team. Please forward this e-mail or take a moment to spread the word about the campaign on social media. Copy and paste the text below or feel free to post a more personal message. This simple gesture will make a big impact on the campaign and future Duquesne University students.

Thank you for your support and happy graduation week!
