Giving Day Update: We Did It!

Blue Demon Challenge has come to an end, and we cannot thank you enough for being one of the 6,000+ Blue Demons who came together to make a BIG impact for DePaul University!

Whether you supported scholarships, academic programs, support services, or any of the many worthy initiatives at DePaul, thank you for your dedication to our students. Your generosity makes a meaningful difference—especially for students like Richard, a scholarship recipient who is thankful for his educational experience and the opportunities made possible because of DePaul.

"Your support through the BDC has made college affordable and accessible, turning my dream of attending this university into a reality. I am incredibly grateful for the financial security your gift provides, allowing me to focus fully on my education. Thank you for investing in my future and making this journey possible." - Richard L. (CDM)

Richard is just one student who will forever be impacted by your gift. There are so many students whose lives are positively changed because of you, and for that, THANK YOU!
