Happy Anniversary!
This spring, the UVM Foundation Board of Directors and Foundation Leadership Council celebrate 10 years of service to the University of Vermont. Our volunteer leaders have been indispensable strategic partners in growing and refining the UVM Foundation through its early years. Their commitment, vision, and thought leadership continue to add vitality to the UVM community and strengthen the Foundation’s fundraising and engagement efforts on behalf of the University. There are many ways for alumni and friends of UVM to get involved in what is happening here, including rewarding volunteer opportunities in admissions and in career-focused mentoring and advising. By doing so, you not only help UVM but are offered enriching chances to learn about the work of the University, meet like-minded supporters, and share your expertise and experience. To learn how you can become more engaged, please email the UVM Foundation at impact@uvm.edu.
UVM President Suresh Garimella and Larner College of Medicine Dean Richard Page, MD, joined members of the UVM Foundation Board and Foundation Leadership Council on a private tour of the Firestone Medical Research Building in September 2021. The tour featured faculty members and facilities administrators who provided an in-depth orientation to the project—and a vision of what it will make possible. The 62,500-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility is currently under construction at the Larner College of Medicine. Photo by Ben DeFlorio, 2021.
