That’s right – Temple alumni take a challenge and own it. To date we’ve had 3,440 donors and we’re still counting. Temple alumni met Gerry’s challenge, then crushed it.

Many thanks to all who participated, all who challenged their Temple friends and all whose giving this season inspired our progress. And now Temple’s people, programs and places have Gerry’s additional $300,000 fueling our momentum.
