Steve Lowy Class of 1968 Reunion Challenge

Your classmate Steve Lowy, BS ’68, MS ’70, and his wife, Susie, are so excited to celebrate the Class of 1968, and invite you to join them in making a gift to support current and future WashU students. They have issued a challenge to you: For every $1 you give, the Lowys will give $5, up to a total of $275,000. And if 50 first-time donors participate, the Lowy’s will make an additional $250,000 gift. Participating in the Class of 1968 Class Gift is a great way to show your pride in our class, whether you can attend Reunion or not! Make your contribution to the class gift and learn more below about what motivates the Lowy’s to give to WashU today.

We are excited to welcome the Class of 1968 back to campus for your 55th reunion! 

Help carry on a longstanding university tradition of giving back. Make a gift in honor of the Class of 1968 and our amazing WashU experience. Your contribution of any amount to any area of the university counts towards our goal. We cannot do this without dedicated alumni like you! 

We know a large percentage of our classmates are not able to attend in-person reunion. The class gift allows alumni from around the world to participate in this milestone anniversary. 

The following alumni are currently volunteering their time for our Class of 1968 Reunion Committee in 2023 and are playing a vital role in our fundraising efforts. We are thankful for their continued dedication and interest in commemorating our reunion year. Our combined class gift provides resources that will have a positive impact on WashU and students for many years to come.
