The Gannon Center for Women and Leadership was established in 1993 in honor of Ann Ida Gannon, BVM, the longest-serving president of Mundelein College. While honoring Sister Ann Ida’s legacy and the legacy of Mundelein College, the Gannon Center engages in Loyola’s mission of transformative education through a focus on developing and empowering women leaders. 

The Challenge: 

When 45 supporters make a gift to any area of the Gannon Center for Women and Leadership, $1,000 in additional support will be unlocked thanks to a Rambler who wishes to remain anonymous.

Why should I give?

When you give to the Gannon Center for Women and Leadership you are helping to provide programs, research, and service to engage and support students as leaders at Loyola and beyond.

What do the funds support?
Your gift supports scholarships, research expenses, internships, and volunteer opportunities for our Gannon Scholars, as well as support for our Women and Leadership Archives.

When you give to the Gannon Center's Greatest Needs or Gannon Scholars, it directly supports student leadership education at all levels of study and keeps the Spirit of Mundelein alive for today's students.
