What is Billiken Backers?

Billiken Backers is Saint Louis University's new crowdfunding platform. It is our way of supporting students, faculty, staff and organizations that need funding for specific projects to fulfill the Jesuit Mission. It also gives our alumni, parents and friends, the opportunity to directly support their fellow Billikens by choosing a project that speaks to them and making a gift directly to that fund or organization.
