Update: on the Lincoln University Lion Statues Legacy Campaign

The Campaign is OPEN

The Bring the Lions Home Campaign was a resounding success! With the visionary leadership of Lion Ron Slaughter '73; his cohort of alumni, classmates, and friends; and with the energy and perserverance of the AALU Program Committee, we raised over $55,000 to purchase two majestic antique Lions, one looking toward our past, with the second one focused on our future. And we were able to transport them safely to Lincoln where they are resting in a temporary location.

Going forward, the AALU will coordinate alumni participation and fundraising to complete the site development and installation of these majestic emblems of Lion pride. The University is launching a committee, with alumni participation, to oversee the integration of these statues into the Campus Master Plan. The AALU is planning a Lions Legacy & Brick Building Fundraising Campaign. Alumni and friends who have donated $500 or more to date, will receive bricks and priority placement when the site is developed, as well as recognition as an early donor. There is still time to join the priority group by donating now. You may add to a previous donation.

Once the Brick Building Fundraising Campaign starts, pricing, priority placement, and recognition opportunities will change. This is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to leave a permanent legacy on Lincoln's campus. Become an early donor today!

EVENTS CALENDAR

Dear LU Community,

As we enter fiscal year 2025 on July 1st, I think about my last three years as AALU President and what I hope the Association will accomplish by the end of my final year in office. We have accomplished a lot in terms of supporting our people, increasing our financial power to contribute, and broadening our participation.

At the same time, we still have work to do to enlarge our membership, envision/reimagine what alumni participation actually means, and to enlist legions of champions to advance support of Lincoln.

Sustainability is on my mind, as we work to enshrine the legacy of the Alumni Association as an indispensable partner in advancing the mission of LIncoln.
