Advancing Together: The Campaign for UMass Chan

At UMass Chan, we’re Advancing Together.

That’s the name of our ambitious $500 million comprehensive fundraising campaign, which dovetails with UMass Chan’s first brand campaign of the same name and is the largest fundraising initiative in school history.

The Advancing Together campaign will attract philanthropic resources to foster innovation, drive discoveries and educate future leaders in medicine, nursing and science—all so that we can build healthier communities here in Massachusetts and across the world.
