HAMMOND - Southeastern Louisiana University will hold its fourth annual day of
giving on Tuesday, April 24. Called “All in for Southeastern,” the event is designed
to encourage alumni, friends, students, supporters and community members to join together
to support the university in an online effort.
“This is a day when we ask all of our Southeastern family to pitch in and make
a donation to help Southeastern build on its legacy of excellence. Past years’ funds
have been used across campus for projects ranging from classroom technology to student
programming and from student research projects to scholarships. We hope this year
will be even better,” said Vice President for University Advancement Wendy Lauderdale.
“We also ask for a little help in spreading the word,” she said. “We’re asking
our supporters to reach out to four friends who also know the importance of Southeastern
but who may not be involved. Encourage them to participate by making a donation as
well.”
She said any amount is beneficial and will make a difference in the lives of
students, whether its $10 or $10,000.
Additional information is available at southeastern.edu/all-in or at facebook.com/southeasternfoundation.
Donations are tax deductible and can be made at anytime or on any day starting
today, but are encouraged between 12:01 a.m. and 11:59 p.m. on April 24.
