Generous Community By the Numbers
Last year, Institutional Advancement expanded, adding the Community Impact and The Chandler Center teams. The department’s collective mission is to build community and encourage generosity to advance educational equity and expand opportunity through meaningful engagement. These numbers tell a powerful story: our mission in action. From volunteering time and fostering relationships to contributing financially, these data points reflect the tangible ways you’re helping SNHU bring the Institutional Advancement mission to life.
