Support UD and the Biden School on Giving Tuesday and beyond.

On October 22, 2021, the Stavros Niarchos Foundation (SNF) Ithaca Initiative of the Joseph R. Biden, Jr. School of Public Policy and Administration convened a first-of-its-kind national summit of scholars at the University of Delaware.

Opal Lee, an activist who worked tirelessly to establish Juneteenth as a national holiday, was awarded the Women of Power and Purpose Award for 2021.

Through academic coursework, hands-on experiences, and special events, the SNF Ithaca Initiative is helping UD students have opportunities to advance the national civil discourse and civic engagement.
