Roosevelt Students Succeed

A new fundraising initiative focused on expanding opportunity, enriching the student experience and strengthening resilience

The best is still ahead.

As Roosevelt grows, so must our commitment to ensuring every student has the resources, experiences and support to persist, graduate and build a meaningful future. That’s why we’re proud to launch Roosevelt Students Succeed—the next chapter in our philanthropic journey.

Three essential questions.

Roosevelt Students Succeed challenges us to answer three critical questions:

  • - How will we help students get to Roosevelt and remain financially able to stay?
  • - How will we help them make the most of their education?
  • - How will we help them overcome challenges that could stand in between them and graduation?

Three areas of support.

Give the gift of opportunity

Opportunity begins with access—and is realized through support that carries students all the way to graduation. Roosevelt’s scholarship and grant programs help remove financial barriers, strengthen persistence and expand pathways to completion.  

Give the gift of experience

A student’s education is more than the degree they earn. It is the day-to-day experiences they’re given—inside and outside the classroom—led by our expert faculty and staff.

Give the gift of resilience

Every student deserves the change to succeed. When you give the gift of resilience, you empower students not only to overcome challenges, but to move forward with confidence and finish what they started. 

We invite you to connect with our team to explore an annual or recurring gift, pledge, endowed fund or estate gift—and find the giving opportunity that is right for you. 
 

Building a Roosevelt Legacy

When you include Roosevelt University in your estate plans today, you are choosing to support the Roosevelt students of tomorrow — ensuring their access to an education grounded in excellence, diversity and equity. Your estate gift will lay the foundation for the University's future, while making certain that your personal philanthropic intentions are honored.
