Sponsors & Donors
While there is still work to be done (and we hope to add more to this list in the near future), we are so very grateful for the outpouring of support to help make sure that the legacy of John Little and our proud UND tradition survive!
Sponsor the 51st Annual Writers Conference
The 51st Annual UND Writers Conference (March 25-27, 2020) will happen, thanks, in part, to the generous gifts and grants from the following individuals and organizations.
