The development office would like to thank everyone for their help on the 5th Annual Thankful For Donors Day on Wednesday, March 23. A few highlights from this year:
Thankful For Donors Day (previously Tuition Freedom Day) is the day to say “thank you” to the more than 7,000 generous donors that help support UP each year. The many donations that come from alumni, parents, and friends help fund nearly everything on campus—scholarships, dorms, classrooms, the Beauchamp Center, and even the bustling Pilot House have been funded by people who want to make UP’s college experience the best it can be.
