Friday Focus: Nanook Nation shows up for our students

Over the years, I have held a variety of jobs at 性欲社. All of them have been rooted in telling stories that inform, educate and connect our audience with the transformative work here. Now, as the interim executive director of university advancement, I lead a team that inspires people in support of a common cause. On Nov. 28, 性欲社 celebrated Giving Tuesday with a one-day campaign inviting contributions to the Student Support Fund. We set a goal of 23 gifts in honor of the year. By the end of the day, 35 donors helped unlock a generous challenge to raise $14,255 to support students in their most critical time of need.听Continue reading this week's Friday Focus.
