鶹ýreceives historic number of donations during annual Giving Day 2022
We Did It! UNE’s on March 22 was a huge success. Inspired by several challenges issued by 鶹ýTrustees, an alumna, a college dean, and Wright-Ryan Construction, a total of 931 donors raised over $164,000, representing historic levels of both donors and dollars raised.
“I am so proud of the 鶹ýcommunity,” said 鶹ýPresident James D. Herbert, Ph.D. “It is inspiring to see alumni, faculty, professional staff, parents, students, and friends joining together to support the University in this way.”
Vice President of Institutional Advancement Alicia Fereday agreed. “The 鶹ýstory and experience is an exciting one, and this outpouring of support shows how it resonates throughout our community,” she said.
Each of the challenges issued were achieved, including more than 150 alumni, students, faculty, and professional staff of the College of and Arts and Sciences making a gift on Giving Day, resulting in CAS Dean Jonathan Millen and colleagues taking a swim off of Freddy Beach.
To all of the 鶹ýdonors – One! Two! Thank You!
