Vision & Mission

Our Purpose

UNG’s students remain the core of the University of North Georgia Foundation, Inc.’s purpose. It is a special responsibility and calling to support students’ journey to realize their potential and to prepare them for career success or continued education. While UNG remains nationally recognized for affordability and value, one of the barriers to education for many students in our area is cost. Because of the loyalty and generosity of our alumni and friends, many financial barriers have been removed, providing students the freedom to grow into the next generation of leaders.
