About #JayItForward Giving Day
When you #JayItForward and make a gift, you are helping to change a life and participating in a tradition that has defined us as a University. For 150 years we have been committed to making an Elmhurst education accessible to students because we know it's a life-changing proposition.
Your gift helps to make a student's passion and purpose possible. #JayItForward to help students access the transformational education and experience of Elmhurst University.
Our Goal
This year, it's our goal to see record numbers of alumni, parents, family, friends and students participate in Giving Day and #JayItForward.
Yes, we want to raise money. But we're even more eager to share with you the joy of becoming an Elmhurst University donor - the excitement of seeing your name on the Leaderboard; the electricity of connecting with others who are just as committed to this life-changing institution; and the unbeatable satisfaction of paying it forward.
#JayItForward
Improvements to Faganel Hall and Langhorst Field will provide an upgraded experience for thousands of students, coaches, spectators and community members – whether they are competing or watching the University’s Division III athletics programs or utilizing the facilities for intramural and recreational activity. Featuring new competition surfaces, tracks, and scoreboards, the refurbished facilities will be showcased while recruiting hundreds of prospective students and student-athletes every year.
Your Impact
We invite you to join us in strengthening our vibrant University community. The difference will be felt by students today and for generations to come.
Your gift will ensure that our bright, deserving students will continue to receive the educational experience that defines Elmhurst University: relevant, rigorous, valuable and personal.
