Leading with Loyalty
Will you consider joining a special group of Loyola friends in leading the way? A small group of generous lead donors have pooled together a significant "Challenge Gift" that will be unlocked when our groal of 900 donors is reached. Leadership gifts designated for Loyola Loyal Day energize the Loyola community and create a larger impact for all donations made. Book a meeting to learn more.
To show our appreciation this year, leadership donors will be thanked with a Loyola wine stopper made with titanium and donated by Trustee Nancy Hairston.
