<td>As the holiday season approaches, we’re filled with gratitude. It’s the perfect time to reflect on the incredible impact made possible by our generous Quinnipiac community. Quinnipiac is proud to celebrate you with our <u><a id="yiv3666561786OWA64c7f7a9-a3d3-d70b-642d-08a5c4713334" class="yiv3666561786OWAAutoLink" href="https://www.ne16.com/t/9838196/174303648/8319909/1/1006959/?x=12339199" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">2024–25 Impact Report</a></u>, a testament to the power of your philanthropy, passion, and unwavering support.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The extraordinary momentum we’ve experienced would not be possible without you. Thanks to your generous support, Quinnipiac continues to grow and thrive. We welcomed more than 4,000 new students this year, including the largest graduate class in our history and the second-largest incoming undergraduate class. And this past May, we proudly conferred degrees to 2,891 graduates, each one prepared to lead, serve and shape the future.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Philanthropy plays a vital role in making that kind of impact possible. Your support fuels student scholarships and financial aid, launches innovative programs, advances faculty excellence and leadership, and allows us to invest in new capital projects which define a Quinnipiac education. Because of you, our students are not only achieving academic success — they’re engaging with their communities, pursuing bold ambitions and stepping confidently into the world.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>As we look ahead to our centennial in 2029 and accelerate the momentum of <u><a id="yiv3666561786OWA6103e2b8-530a-ebfb-3a3b-41ffdf994fd7" class="yiv3666561786OWAAutoLink" href="https://www.ne16.com/t/9838196/174303648/5906718/0/1006959/?x=9ffef8b7" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">For the Ambitious: A Campaign for the Next Century</a></u>, we remain focused on creating access, opportunity and excellence for every student. With every gift, you help unlock the full potential of a Quinnipiac education.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Thank you for your generosity and ambition, and for helping us build what’s next. With gratitude,</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<p>The National Education Association (NEA) and the American Counseling Association (ACA) have become Co-Presenting Conference Partners at the Human Rights Campaign Foundation’s inaugural <em>Time To THRIVE</em> Conference – supporting lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and questioning (LGBTQ) youth. The national conference, which will take place in February, is for educators and other youth-serving professionals and will build awareness and cultural competency, offer best practices, and deliver resources from leading experts working on behalf of LGBTQ youth.  The NEA is the nation’s largest professional organization, representing 3 million members in education; and the ACA is the largest association representing professional counselors in various practice settings.</p>
<p>“Our partnership with the Human Rights Campaign Foundation comes at a critical time in the struggle for the rights of LGBTQ people in our country,” said NEA President Dennis Van Roekel. “We’ve come a long way on the road to legal equality, but we have many miles still to go.”</p>
<p>&#8220;Time to Thrive was created to address an issue head on. That&#8217;s the approach our counseling professionals encourage and that&#8217;s the approach we support as a strong, unified counseling community. By sharing knowledge, tools, insights, and techniques, we can better serve this invaluable population,&#8221; said ACA President Cirecie West Olatunji, Ph.D.</p>
<p>The NEA has long been an advocate for LGBTQ rights. Partnering with the Human Rights Campaign Foundation will help the organization’s leaders provide members with the tools they need to better meet the needs of LGBTQ youth. Participating in the first annual <em>Time to THRIVE</em> conference will give NEA members an opportunity to develop partnerships and share what they’ve learned with other professionals who are also serving America’s youth.</p>
<p>The ACA and its diverse professional membership embrace a humanistic approach to mental health, focusing on empowerment, engagement, and support as integral components of health and well-being for each individual. HRC and the <em>Time to Thrive</em> conference also embody this approach by striving to provide relevant, timely, powerful education and resources, which will help youth-serving professionals address the realities of one of our nation&#8217;s most vulnerable populations. A shared vision of focused care and prevention made this partnership a natural progression for ACA.</p>
<p>&#8220;All young people should be provided with a safe place to learn and an equitable chance to thrive,” said Vinnie Pompei, Director of HRC Foundation’s Youth Well-Being Project and conference chair.  “Unfortunately, that doesn&#8217;t happen automatically for those who identify or are perceived to be LGBTQ.  Educators and other youth-service providers are thirsty for training and resources.  I am thrilled that <em>Time to THRIVE</em> will provide these professionals with a ‘one-stop-shop’ opportunity to become emerging experts and change agents in their communities.”</p>
