Duke Receives Historic Collective Gift to Support First-Generation, Low-Income Students in Perpetuity
Duke University has received $18 million in philanthropic support in the form of a challenge fund to bolster DukeLIFE, a critical resource for first-generation and low-income undergraduates. Many students are navigating processes and resources for the first time.
These new commitments make up a challenge fund that the lead donors hope will inspire others to establish endowments for DukeLIFE. “DukeLIFE ensures that all undergraduate students have the support and resources to fully pursue their goals, cultivate lifelong mentoring relationships and create community here at Duke,” said President Vincent E. Price.
