An Invitation To Move Our Founder’s Vision Forward

Drexel Society is a community of donors who, like the founder of our beloved institution, believe in our University’s mission of providing an inclusive, immersive and civically engaged education. They allow the University to address immediate needs and opportunities, like student scholarships, faculty support, emergency funds, facilities and more.
