Day of Giving Breakfast Fundraiser

Hannibal-LaGrange University invites alumni, friends, and community members to a special Day of Giving Fundraiser Breakfast on Friday, April 10, from 7:00 a.m. to 8:30 a.m. in the Page Dining Room inside the Partee Center on the HLGU campus. Hosted by the HLGU Board of Visitors, the breakfast is offered at no cost, though guests are encouraged to make a donation in support of the University’s 2026 Day of Giving efforts. All proceeds will contribute toward the Board of Visitors’ $40,000 matching gift supporting Bring Back the Legacy: Phase 2, doubling the impact of every gift made during the event. Phase 2 will include completing the renovation of Pulliam Hall, and a much-needed facelift of the Becky Thatcher and Mary Wiehe apartment housing. With anticipated enrollment growth this fall and a busy slate of summer camps, updating these facilities is essential to ensure HLGU can accommodate incoming students and summer guests. The breakfast is open to all ages and will feature a buffet served from the cafeteria line. The buffet includes a variety of hot and cold breakfast options, including but not limited to scrambled eggs, breakfast meats, a yogurt bar, fresh fruit, pastries, a waffle bar, and a selection of hot and cold beverages. No reservations are required for individuals or families. Large groups (8 or more) planning to attend are asked to contact the University by April 1 so a table can be reserved. “This breakfast is a meaningful opportunity for our community to come together in support of HLGU and our Day of Giving,” said Jim and Linda Youse, representatives of the Board of Visitors. “Every gift helps us move closer to meeting the $40,000 match and directly supports the mission and momentum of Bring Back the Legacy: Phase 2.” For questions or to reserve a table for a group, please contact the Office of Alumni Services at giving@hlg.edu or (573) 629-3126.
