Greyhounds Helping Greyhounds
The Student Success Fund is made possible by generous donors—including fellow students—grants, and the University.
When students choose to give to the Student Success Fund, they're helping create a resource that can support their fellow Greyhounds when they need it most.
A gift of any size can make a big difference. Your gift could help a fellow student stay in a necessary class, get to an important destination, or help with housing.
It's one way Greyhounds can look out for one another and help make sure an emergency doesn't stand in the way of a Loyola education.
Give to the Student Success Fund
“Thanks to the Student Success Fund, I was able to access course materials during a time of hardship early in the semester. The support allowed me to graduate on time in the spring. I am so grateful this resource is available at Loyola, and I hope to pay it forward.” — Anonymous Student, Class of 2025
