Called to Serve...Fulfilling the Promise

Capital Campaign Collage 

The Capital Campaign, Called to Serve...Fulfilling the Promise, unites a dramatic combination of renovated facilities and landmark new construction.

The Joseph and Marguerite DiSepio Institute for Rural Health & Wellness
Thanks to the generous support of our donor base, particularly the DiSepio and Scharpf families, and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, we completed the first phase of this campaign. This state-of-the-art 30,000-square foot education and research center opened its doors in April 2009. It houses a student health center, rehabilitation services, a human performance lab, fitness and spiritual wellness areas, and conference facilities. The institute is actively fulfilling its mission as a clinical training area for students as well as reaching out to underserved rural populations.

A New Science Center
This building will be a flagship facility for science and technology programs on campus. This new structure will house state-of-the-art classrooms, laboratories and research facilities (including an aquatic research facility), advanced chemical instrumentation and youth outreach areas, in addition to places for students and faculty to gather, study, and learn.  Click to view the Science Center's live construction. 

Renovation of Sullivan Hall
Moving the science facilities to their new home also provides a wonderful opportunity to reinvent Sullivan Hall. No longer will our allied health students be scattered across campus. This space will become a modern classroom and lab space specifically tailored to the needs of our health sciences students, who, of course, will also be spending a great deal of time pursing coursework in the new science center.

Renovation of Schwab Hall
Plans have been developed to renovate and expand Schwab Hall to become the new home for the School of Business. Schwab Hall will house flexible classrooms of various styles, including lecture halls, seminar space, and areas designed for group work and collaboration. In addition, the building will provide office and meeting rooms for the dean and associate dean of the School, private offices for faculty and staff, small and large conference rooms, and dedicated space for adjunct and visiting instructors.
Message from Chair

"Once you experience the academic richness of Saint Francis University, when you meet the community of Loretto, you are changed forever. There is the planting of a seed that grows in the heart, and that seed grows forever into a vast sense of gratitude.  I am inspired by the reality of this, and I have witnessed it first hand in our benefactors, who have affirmed what I have come to know: Loretto and Saint Francis University are a community, one that transforms hearts and minds and gives an eternal promise to each and every soul whose journey brings them to this most blessed place."

Reverend Gabriel J. Zeis, TOR
