Under the direction of our board of trustees, our capital campaign builds on our founder's vision as we seek to raise funds for special campus projects that will help us enhance our facilities and expand our program offerings in all areas. Execution of these projects will not begin until the funds to build them have been raised. Please contact Kelly DeRossette to learn more about our capital projects, naming opportunities, and how you can be a part of building Dunham's future.
All capital donations are 100% tax-deductible.
