On Friday, January 10, 2025, the University of North Alabama will celebrate our founding as the oldest four-year public university in Alabama. Established in 1830 as LaGrange College, UNA holds a legacy of excellence and tradition.
In honor of this momentous occasion, I invite you to join me in supporting the 1830 Fund, a key priority of the Shine On, Gold campaign. Every giver and every gift matter at UNA, and your gift will make a meaningful impact at the University of North Alabama!
