Get ready for the Blue Demon Challenge on Jan. 25

Logo for Blue Demon Challenge

Each year, the Blue Demon Challenge serves as DePaul's day of giving, when alumni, parents, friends, students, faculty and staff come together to support the university by giving back.

This year, the Blue Demon Challenge happens on Wednesday, Jan. 25, and in celebration of DePaul University's 125th anniversary, the goal is our biggest yet: We are asking alumni, parents, friends, students, faculty and staff to raise $7 million in a single day. Every gift of any size on Jan. 25 helps reach this goal.

Just as importantly, each gift also recognizes the value of a DePaul education and provides resources that enable DePaul students to reach their full potential and fulfill their dreams.

In the lead-up to the Blue Demon Challenge, you can make a difference in three ways:

  • Mark your calendar for Wednesday, Jan. 25;
  • Resolve to make a donation at challenge.depaul.edu next Wednesday; and
  • Spread the word. Post about the challenge on social media, using the hashtag #BlueDemonChallenge. And send a text or email to ask other members of the DePaul community to participate.

Help DePaul make history on Wednesday, Jan. 25!
