About Us
The Northern Michigan University Foundation has closed the fiscal year with over $10.3 million committed in philanthropic support.
This is the first time in NMU's history that the NMU Foundation has surpassed $10 million in a single fiscal year.
Philanthropic support fuels scholarships, academic excellence, student success initiatives, faculty support, and transformative campus projects.
Each gift, regardless of size, helps expand access to higher education, enrich the student experience, and strengthen Northern's ability to meet the evolving needs of students.
