The University of North Alabama is making significant strides in its most ambitious fundraising effort to date, with the campaign now reaching the three-quarters mark. As reported by university officials, the Shine On, Gold Comprehensive Campaign has successfully garnered over $75 million towards its $100 million goal. This milestone was celebrated during the homecoming weekend on September 29, 2023, when the university held an alumni assembly to officially launch the campaign.
At this event, it was revealed that the institution had already accumulated $61 million prior to the public announcement. The campaign itself began quietly in 2021, laying the groundwork for what has become a transformative initiative for the university. With continued support from alumni and the community, UNA is poised to achieve its ambitious fundraising target.
