Established in 2020, LindenGiving is a community outreach endeavor focused on serving the most essential needs of our neighbors here in St. Charles. Each initiative under the LindenGiving program aligns with a University value: excellence, dedication, integrity, creativity, teamwork.
Each initiative partners with a local non-profit organization and engages the campus community in support of the endeavor. LindenGiving is chaired by Mrs. Beverly Porter, Lindenwood University’s first lady, and led by a committee of campus leaders dedicated to serving others.
