With Sincere Gratitude…

Already distinguished for their philanthropy to Duke University and many other worthy causes, these friends of the Nicholas School have stepped forward again and made leadership gifts to kick off the Nicholas School Financial Aid initiative campaign. The students, faculty and administration of the Nicholas School extend their deepest thanks to these individuals who have set a wonderful example of generosity. We ask our alumni and friends to join them in supporting this important Initiative that will have a lasting impact on the school and on our world.
