Endowment Update

We’re thrilled to announce that the Michael D. Gill Scholarship has reached the required funding to become a fully endowed scholarship at the University of Dayton!

In an incredible testament to the generosity and love of so many, what we expected might take two years was accomplished in just six months.

To clarify: a scholarship is considered endowed once pledges and gifts total $100,000 — and thanks to your support, we’ve reached that milestone. However, the first scholarship award cannot be granted until the full amount is received. With that in mind, we welcome any additional pledges and, where possible, the acceleration of existing pledge payments.

While we’ve crossed the first major hurdle, our goal is to continue growing this scholarship so it can support even more students for years to come.
