Faculty/Staff Campaign
As a member of our dedicated faculty and staff, your hard work impacts the lives of students in essential ways. Every day, each and every one of us contributes towards ensuring that students have an opportunity to reach their educational goals. Giving to DePaul is another great way to show your support and to help make a difference in the lives of our students.
Faculty/Staff Endowed Scholarship
The majority of faculty and staff gifts support the Faculty/Staff Endowed Scholarship. In the spring, each college nominates an exemplary student to the Faculty/Staff Campaign Committee, which then awards a scholarship to one student from each college. This year, nine students received $2,900 each, a significant increase from the $300 given when the scholarship was first awarded in 1996. This scholarship, which is exclusively supported by faculty and staff, makes a significant difference for students struggling to pay their tuition.
Designating Gifts
The decision to make a gift is a personal one. You may designate your gift to whichever area of the university you choose or split your gift among different funds of your choice. Whether large or small, your gift counts and will contribute to the success of our students and our university.
Payroll Deduction
Giving is easy! Making your gift through payroll deduction enables you to split your gift into installments, spreading it over as many or as few pay periods as you wish. Payroll deduction makes giving easy to budget, saves you time and helps the environment.
Sign up online to make your gift through payroll deduction.
Other Methods of Giving
You also can support our students and our university through
other methods of giving, including check, credit card, automatic funds transfers, stock transfers and planned giving.
Exclusive President’s Club Opportunity
Faculty and staff members who choose to make a gift of $1,000 or more through
payroll deduction will immediately become a member of the
President's Club, DePaul’s premier annual giving society. Historically, donors become members of the President’s Club and were eligible for its benefits only once their cumulative giving reached $1,000. This is an exclusive opportunity for faculty and staff who sign up for payroll deduction online.
Faculty/Staff Donor Appreciation Reception
Every year, faculty and staff donors are invited to a reception hosted by the Faculty/Staff Campaign Committee to celebrate and recognize faculty and staff donors. Check out the
2009 appreciation reception photo gallery.
In November 2009, DePaul faculty and staff who also are alumni enjoyed a preview of the new
Alumni Center on DePaul’s Lincoln Park Campus. See the
Welcome Center reception photo gallery.
Faculty/Staff Campaign Committee
The Faculty/Staff Campaign Committee is a group of faculty and staff dedicated to helping raise awareness of the Faculty/Staff Campaign and to promoting annual giving among their colleagues. Read about
