The Duquesne Fund (Unrestricted)

Duquesne students and faculty don’t accept the status quo. They’re always thinking bigger.

And every gift to THE DUQUESNE FUND makes their ambitions possible.

Donors like you provide a horizon-expanding education in an atmosphere of learning together and walking alongside each other that prepares students for successful lives and careers.

Gifts advance equity and opportunity by providing scholarships and financial aid that ensure access and affordability to students from all backgrounds, in keeping with our Spiritan heritage.

Activities, amenities and comprehensive services—all supported by The Duquesne Fund—make our distinctive experience exactly what students need—and more than they ever imagined.

And all of this is housed in a location unlike any other—a safe, comfortable campus in the center of a vibrant city. Generous benefactors help us constantly expand, renovate and renew our facilities.

Whether you make an unrestricted gift or support a school, program, activity or scholarship with special meaning, every gift to The Duquesne Fund touches and transforms every student every day.

It’s time for bigger goals. Help us reach the next level by giving to The Duquesne Fund today!
