Thanks to everyone who supported our fourth annual Drive to 100 campaign between October 10–14. Final results from this year's campaign can be found here.

The Drive to 100 is our annual fall giving campaign meant to bring our community together in support of the Loyola Fund, which directly impacts our Dons and many facets of the Loyola experience.

SUPPORTING THE MIND, BODY, & SPIRIT
OF OUR DONS

For this year's campaign, we are honoring those facets of our campus experience which help develop our Dons in Mind, Body, & Spirit. When making your gift during this campaign, you have the opportunity to designate it to one of six different areas of the Loyola Blakefield experience vital to the development of our Dons.

Those six designated areas are:

Academics
Broadly support curricular enhancements and academic programs, or choose to support a particular academic department.

Athletics
Broadly support our athletics department, or support a program or team of your choosing.

Arts
Broadly support our performing and visual arts programs, or designate your gift to a specific area such as The Blakefield Players or our instrumental and choral programs.

Co-Curriculars
Broadly support our co- and extracurricular activities, or designate your gift to one of our student clubs.

Ignatian Mission
Support retreats, service programs, and other formational opportunities through the Office of Mission & Identity.

Access & Affordability
Choose to designate your gift to our #1 priority as an institution in the way of scholarship and financial aid support, which helps to make a Loyola Blakefield education more accessible and affordable for all current and prospective families.

GOAL

Raise $100,000 for the Loyola Fund and our Dons in one week.

Learn more about the impact you can have through the Loyola Fund here.
