The Kresge Challenge Met,
Hannon Library Funded


Through your support, two enormous goals in the $380 million "Campaign for
LMU" have been reached.

First, we reached the $55 million fundraising goal for the new William H.
Hannon Library. To see construction progress, visit www.lmu.edu/newlibrary
Kresge
Second, we met the Kresge Challenge. The Kresge Foundation pledged $1 million if LMU could raise the then-remaining $12.5 million towards the $55 million goal. With the support of the alumni, we did it!

Alumni participation was key to the success. 
  • Overall, 1,498 alumni contributed - 81% of the library's contributors
  • 178 had never given to LMU before.

Many thanks to our donors -  your gifts whether large or small, were essential to helpiing us reach our goals.
