1856 Challenge: Volume IX, Powered By Laurentians
Get ready to put your capes on, Laurentian Heroes: The 1856 Challenge: Volume IX, Powered by Laurentians is here! Alumni, parents, friends, faculty, staff, and students are set to assemble, with the goal of maximizing $250,000 in matches and challenges thanks to our “Trusty Trustees,” who are back to showcase the impact of our collective generosity.
Our Trustees have committed to matching all St. Lawrence Fund gifts dollar-for-dollar up to $150,000. Meanwhile, help us unlock $50,000 in additional support at the halfway mark (928 donors) and if we reach 1,856 donors before 8:00 p.m. ET on Wednesday, April 15, 2026. That’s an additional $100,000 to the St. Lawrence Fund if we reach our goal.
Nothing is certain without support from all corners of the Laurentian Universe! Help us achieve our goals and unlock $250,000 to support our students and St. Lawrence.
