Kresge Challenge a Success

We did it! Thanks to the unfaltering support of the UW community – including students, staff, faculty, retirees, alumni and parents – the Kresge Challenge has come to a successful close, raising $2.8 million in just under 24 months. As a result, the Library received a $600,000 US grant from the Kresge Foundation, the largest grant that Kresge has ever awarded to a Canadian library. The money raised during the challenge has and will continue to enable us to make truly dramatic changes within both the Davis and Dana Porter libraries.

The Kresge Challenge was spearheaded by our incredible library staff whose belief in this initiative was unparalleled. To everyone who made this feat possible, our sincerest thanks.
