• Your monthly gift helps build a predictable source of funding for Loyola's reliable donor support leads to significant advances in scholarships, academic programs, research, technology enhancements, and preservation of all campuses.
• Monthly giving saves administrative costs. It is a sustainable giving option because it saves paper, postage, and eliminates renewal notices in your inbox, voicemail, and mailbox.
