Founded in 1981, the President's Club is the annual giving society of DePaul.
We honor and recognize all those who have generously shared their personal resources to affirm and sustain the University.
Membership in the President's Club is an expression of your commitment to DePaul University. Through this giving society, your generosity and individual leadership supports
DePaul's Vincentian mission of providing a quality, values-based education that transforms student lives and their communities. Find out more from the
President's Club brochure.
