Letter From Gabi

As the new Vice President of Institutional Advancement, I am delighted to welcome you to our latest edition of Impact, the SNHU magazine for alumni, donors, and volunteers.

Southern New Hampshire University has always prided itself on being more than just a place of learning; it is a lifelong community. SNHU transforms lives at scale, and our alumni community, more than 230,000 strong, is an integral part of this mission. Your dedication to our shared mission is a source of Penmen pride.

In the following pages, you will hear about how we are supporting our first-generation learners with our persistence teams and how we are exposing students to civic engagement through our Chandler Center. We will celebrate our alumni and honor SNHU President Paul LeBlanc’s legacy as our trailblazing leader.

Our commitment to building a community of engagement and giving is unwavering. We want to provide you with opportunities to stay connected, not only to the university but also to your fellow alumni. We want to foster a culture of giving, where your knowledge, time, and resources can be channeled into making SNHU’s work more impactful. Whether it is through volunteering as an interviewer during Mock Interviews, offering a student an internship opportunity, contributing to student scholarships, or organizing a volunteer service project for Global Days of Service with fellow alumni, your involvement is critical to our learners’ success.

Thank you for helping us to build a vibrant community of engagement and giving – a community that not only honors its past but actively shapes its future. Welcome to Impact, where your story is celebrated, and your voice is heard.

With gratitude,

Gabi Zolla
Vice President, Institutional Advancement
