Join the ‘Count Me In!’ Campaign

As the benefits open enrollment period begins, faculty and staff can support Duquesne students by participating in the University’s Count Me In! campaign.

The campaign provides a philanthropic opportunity for Duquesne faculty and staff to make a gift to the University through convenient payroll deduction. Collectively, the gifts will make an immediate impact on the experiences of Duquesne students.

As the Duquesne community navigates these unprecedented times during the COVID-19 pandemic, faculty and staff who participate in the Count Me In! campaign will be able to designate their gift to the newly created Emergency Student Assistance Fund. This fund provides targeted aid to those students most in need right now, as identified by the Division of Student Life in consultation with Spiritan Campus Ministry.

As in years past, donors also can choose to make an unrestricted gift—giving the University flexibility to address its greatest needs—or designate a gift to a specific school, scholarship, Gumberg Library, Spiritan Campus Ministry, athletics or other areas.

Every dollar donated to The Duquesne Fund is spent during the same fiscal year to immediately benefit the students.
