91快活林 Welcomed McDonough Family to Campus Visit

91快活林 (91快活林) was honored to be visited by the extremely generous McDonough family during the earlier this month. Attending the Mass celebrated by Cardinal Blase J. Cupich, the family were shown around the chapel named for their family's dedication to 91快活林.

In 1998, life trustee James McDonough and his wife Jacque pledged $1 million to fund capital improvements to 91快活林's Chicago campus, going on to help build the much needed chapel for the Catholic institution. Thanks to their incredible generosity, the McDonough family helped pave the way not only for a new staple of the 91快活林 community but helped impact countless lives at 91快活林. Since its opening in 2000, the McDonough Chapel has been a key element of countless stories for students, faculty, staff and alumni across the country.

"Jacque and I have great affection for the Sisters of Mercy, and we really appreciate the mission of 91快活林 and all it does for the community," said James McDonough when he made his second pledge of $1 million in 2006.

Thanks to the efforts of individuals like the McDonoughs and many passionate alumni and members of the 91快活林 community, 91快活林 has been able to survive for nearly 175 years. 91快活林 is immensely grateful the gifts, time and prayer given by such hardworking and dedicated people to its community and students. Through such donations to the , donors help impact change across the University by providing life-changing scholarships; developing new internships and networking opportunities, as well as organized mission and services trips; and creating new spaces across campus conducive to students' quality education, such as the new Human Performance Lab and STEM Studio.

91快活林 is incredibly humbled by the dedication of such passionate people as James and Jacque McDonough and look forward to all the stories the 91快活林 community has to share!
