“It is not lost on me that this initiative, named Shoulder-to-Shoulder, is being launched during a time when we have to stand at least 6 feet apart from each other.”

Although we are physically separated in these unprecedented times, we must remain united in mission and in service to the next generation. In order to navigate this uncharted course and push Norwich to greater heights, we must continue to stand Shoulder-to-Shoulder. That is why we have identified five priorities that are essential to our success: The Norwich Fund, Scholarships, Technology Endowment, Academic Enhancement, Planned Giving.

Through May 2023, we have set our sights on raising $28 million for these priorities.

Each and every one of us plays a key part in ensuring the University’s legacy. Our nation and world need Norwich graduates, and together, we make that possible. Emboldened by your support, Norwich will continue to do what it has always done best—prepare our nation’s future leaders for the challenges and opportunities of the 21st century.

Will you join us as we stand Shoulder-to-Shoulder? Norwich Together, Norwich Forever!
