Dear Sanford Alumni and Friends,
Happy New Year! We are excited to share a remarkable milestone with you: the Sanford Board of Visitors achieved 100% participation in gifts and pledges to the Sanford Annual Fund in the run up to the election - The Sanford School board was the first of Duke’s boards of visitors to achieve this. By reaching this important milestone early in the fiscal year, our goal was to signal our belief in the power of the Sanford School to make a lasting impact.
