About Development
President's Club

See the results of the 2008 President's Club Survey

Founded in 1981, the President's Club is the annual giving society of DePaul that honors and recognizes 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.
