What is the Kresge Challenge?
In 2006, the Kresge Foundation challenged LMU to raise the remaining $10 million of the $55 million needed to build the William H. Hannon Library by May 31, 2008. New donor gifts of all sizes helped us meet this challenge. We also increased alumni participation from 13 to 15%. We met our goals and the Kresge Foundation awarded LMU $1 million towards the construction of the new library. Thank you to all that participated.
