It’s DBU Giving Day! Today, we’re joining together to impact & empower future Christian leaders!

Would you partner with us in giving today? Support the CSL in one of these ways:

- Give to the CSL Excellence Fund to support our team as we seek to develop leaders in a variety of ways, in and out of the classroom

- Honor the memory of CSL students Gail Miller, Cohort X, & Kenny Comstock, Cohort XII, as you give to their Endowed Scholarship Funds. Miller and Comstock both tragically passed away during their time as PhD students and were cherished members of their cohorts and the CSL. To give to their funds, note their names in your gift form.

A greater DBU starts with YOU!
