A $65 million success
When Defining Moment was quietly launched in 2004, the original goal was $32 million, and the primary vision was to bring a new library to the LaGrange campus. The goal—and the vision—grew.

Now, as the campaign nears its end, more than $65 million has been raised, and the resulting achievements stretch far beyond a new signature building on the Hill. Nearly every facet of the student experience has been touched by the campaign’s accomplishments.

Those accomplishments have advanced three distinct goals:

1.   Enhancing the student experience
2.   Improving facilities
3.   Growing endowment

A $65 million success? Yes.But not because of the total of gifts and pledges. A success because of the improvements that have made LaGrange College a better place to both challenge the mind and inspire the soul … a  better place for students to lay the foundation for a life-changing future.

As you read this report, celebrate the defining success of those students and of Defining Moment: The LaGrange College Campaign for Distinction
