Class of 1975: 40 Year Reunion Giving Challenge
Dear fellow graduates of the class of 1975,
Thank you for taking a moment to check out our page for the Reunion Giving Challenge. This year, we are hoping to make an impact on current Duquesne students by making a donation to honor our 40th reunion. Gifts of any size really do make a difference and participation is what matters most! Please join me in making a gift to support our school!
Sincerely,
Kathe Balinski
P.S. We hope to see you Oct. 9-11 for Homecoming 2015 (click here for complete Homecoming information and to register)!
Reunion Giving Challenge FAQ
Where will my money go?
Gifts made as part of the Reunion Giving Challenge support Duquesne students through scholarships, student activity funds, academic excellence and more. Your gift can also be designated to any school or area on campus that you are passionate about, or to the area of greatest need.
Alumni giving also impacts Duquesne’s ratings, rankings and elevates the University’s reputation, all of which add more value to our degrees.
What if I already donated? You can still help spread the word!
If you already donated – you can still help! Please share this website on social media or send out an email and encourage your fellow alumni to also participate. Don’t forget to also use #duqhomecoming.
What happens if our class has the highest participation rate?
The class with the greatest percentage of participation towards or over their goal will have bragging rights at Homecoming and be announced as the winners of the first Reunion Giving Challenge.
How can I maximize my gift?
Matching gifts also count towards your reunion gift so be sure to check with your and your spouse’s employer or search participating employers here.
