University Advancement

Development and Alumni Relations

Alumni, parents and friends of UNC believe in the institution's mission. Their involvement and philanthropy accelerate opportunities for the university's students, faculty and programs to thrive.

Reporting to the Vice President for University Advancement, UNC's development and alumni relations operation is responsible for directing the relationships, communication and philanthropic strategies that advance UNC. Led by Vice President Allie Steg Haskett, the division works with university leadership and faculty to engage donors and alumni in philanthropy, volunteerism, advocacy, and the responsible management of gifts and constituent records. Additionally, the division works closely with the UNC Foundation, a nonprofit that exists to support and steward donations to the university.
