Syracuse University

We're off to a great start!

Many of Chicago’s finest share SU ties, making an immeasurable impact on Chicago’s parks, schools, theater, and more! But SU alumni and friends aren’t just changing the city’s landscape, they’re stepping up and showing Orange pride, too—raising more than $1.4 million in support of SU and special programs in the Windy City since our Chicago-based fundraising kicked off December 1!

Giving can also be a lifelong experience, and two Chicago alums are setting great examples. Jason Malikow ’03 supports a scholarship fund close to his heart and is active in Chicago’s alumni network, while trustee emeritus Morris (Mike) Weeden ’41 has maintained a strong SU connection for decades.
