Coming to a College Near You...

Our 'Star-Studded' Day of Giving on the Hill!

Lights, camera, and take action by making your gift to The Griffin Fund today!

On March 19, we are rolling out the proverbial red carpet and asking the entire Griffin Community to join us for a special online event to raise money for the Griffin Fund, prioritizing the most critical needs impacting the student experience on campus. Through contributions to The Griffin Fund, YOU have the power to star in the film that is a students' education. YOU have the power to directly and immediately impact day-to-day life for students on campus through a variety of ways including improving the physical condition and accessibility of campus, elevating programming, expanding resources, and providing scholarships among other things. 

Every.Gift.Counts.

This year, we are especially excited to have a $5,000 matching gift challenge from a generous alumna, starring as the lead in our online production. Together, if we can raise $5,000 by midnight, March 19, 2024, the alumna will generously give us $5,000! This matching challenge effectively doubles your donation. Please consider a gift today. We need you to help us reach our goal! 

But that's not all!

Please consider making a special gift, and encourage your classmates to give, too! The class with the largest giving total will earn themselves a "Griffy" for Best Supporting Class!  

Our students are at the heart of everything we do at Chestnut Hill College and your gift will continue to help current and future students experience the best education, most supportive environment, and vast opportunities the College has to offer. So take a moment to visit our version of the Hollywood 'Chestnut' Hills and learn all about some of the A-list students who have been impacted by the generosity of your gift.

The Chestnut Hill College A-List Students
Chloe Youngblood '24

Chloe YoungbloodChloe Youngblood ’24 worked so hard in high school, that she was able to graduate early, and at just 16 years old, entered CHC as a freshman. But her freshman year would prove more challenging than just getting to class on time and finishing assignments.   

“On Valentine’s Day of my freshman year, my dad passed away. Losing my dad that night was the biggest challenge that I faced, especially being a freshman and losing a parent so suddenly. Chestnut Hill College was so understanding as I sent multiple emails to my professors regarding the passing of my father. I got emails full of empathy and many Sisters told me of their experiences of their father’s passing suddenly in their lives, too.”  

After taking a leave of absence, Chloe returned to school and found strength in the CHC community and in her faith. “I was appreciative of the love and support I received from all of my professors. They all understood that I was still in shock.”  

Through any challenges at school during my freshman year, God has been with me. As a result, I was successful in the end. I truly give God the credit because I was able to finish my freshman spring semester with all A’s and I was inducted into the honor society despite grieving the death of my father.”  

Chloe will be graduating in May. At just 20 years old, she’s gone through a lot, but her strength, resolve and resilience will only help her as she focuses on her ambitious goals.   

“My goal after graduating is to continue to work with my local/state government and non-governmental organizations such as the NAACP. Then I want to get my master’s in political science so I can teach civics to high school and college students. After all of this, I aspire to be a constitutional lawyer and possibly a representative or senator.”  

Congresswoman Youngblood has a nice sound to it! Good luck, Chloe! Your CHC family is rooting for you!

Anthony Price '24

Anthony PriceAnthony Price ’24 loved playing baseball and was looking forward to playing at the college level. But just as he was starting to think about college, life threw him a curve ball.  

“Right before my senior year, I caught a very rare infection. Along with losing 45 pounds and all of my muscle, I also lost the interest that colleges had expressed in me to play baseball. I felt like I had lost everything I ever wanted.”   

But CHC stepped in, and Anthony got the support he needed. He wasn’t going to sit on the bench for long.  

"Coach Spratt is the main reason I am in college and playing baseball again. He truly changed my life for the better. When I was sick, he stuck with me, making sure I got healthy and graduated on time. He told me not to worry about baseball until I was healthy again. Then after nine and a half months, I recovered. The minute I was cleared, Coach gave me the chance to play. I wouldn't be in college and about to graduate this May if it wasn't for Coach Spratt coming into my life.” 

When Griffins come together, we make a great team! 

Make your gift and show your support for students like Anthony and staff like Coach Spratt!
