What does the world need from us tomorrow?
Together, we answered that question with a bold investment in UNI's future. Now we invite you to celebrate the success of Our Tomorrow: The Campaign for UNI and the lasting impact your generosity has made on the university. Because of you, we are not only honoring what has been accomplished - we are celebrating UNI's bright future.
Please join us for an evening of connection, gratitude and Panther pride as we celebrate near you. More locations to be announced.

A bolder, brighter tomorrow.
Since the campaign began in 2017, more than 34,000 alumni and friends have made a lasting impact on every corner of campus through historic investments in the students, programs, faculty, staff and spaces that define the UNI experience. Together, Panther supporters have already contributed more than $300M to strengthen UNI and expand opportunities for future generations.
The extraordinary generosity of the Panther family is the driving force behind Our Tomorrow. As we build momentum to the end of this campaign and UNI’s 150th year, we invite you to join us in celebrating this remarkable achievement. Together, we'll honor the collective impact, reflect on all we've accomplished and look forward to UNI’s bold future.
