Friends, our 2025 Day of Giving has been amazing.
Your generosity did this. Your prayerful consideration of allocating your resources did this. Your sacrifice and your HLGU legacy led to this.
But let's not forget--most of all, God did this. Praise the Lord.
We are humbled by the love and the stewardship shown from you in the last 24 hours. We're so excited to see how the Lord uses this money to further his kingdom through the students who come through Hannibal-LaGrange University.
Thank you. May the powerful legacy of HLGU continue for many years to come.
HLGU is also pleased to announce Parker Financial as the official event sponsor.
Leading up to the event, HLGU students will participate in an informational phonathon from March 24 to April 3, reaching out to alumni and friends to share details about the Day of Giving and how they can take part in this special opportunity to support the university.
Last year’s Day of Giving exceeded expectations, with 280 gifts totaling $97,974.13.
