USN creates the Juliet Douglas Endowed Fund for Student Success
For the entire USN community: an invitation to give in gratitude, in celebration, and in honor of the woman has given so much to our school. Make a gift at usn.org/giving to support students with needs beyond tuition and honor Interim Director Juliet Douglas.
By the Director Transition Committee
Throughout her remarkable tenure at USN as Director of Admissions and Financial Aid and continuing as Interim Director, Juliet Douglas has quietly done something extraordinary: she has made sure that all students, regardless of financial circumstances, have what they need to learn and thrive at USN. Computers. Textbooks. Tutors. Supplies. Whatever stands between a student and their full potential, Juliet has found a way. It has simply been done, because that is who she is.
Now we have the opportunity to make that work last long after she passes the torch. The Juliet Douglas Endowed Fund for Student Success is a permanent fund created to carry on that legacy, ensuring that future USN students will always have access to the resources they need, no matter their family's circumstances. This fund is our way of saying: what Juliet built quietly, we will sustain together.
Your gift, whether in honor of Juliet, in gratitude for what USN has meant to your family, or simply in belief that every child deserves every opportunity, makes a real and lasting difference. This is your chance to be part of something that bears her name and reflects the true spirit of USN.
For more information or to make a gift, please contact Anne Westfall or make a gift at usn.org/giving.
