Friends, family and alumni,

We have been absolutely amazed by your kindness in the first few days of our fundraising campaign! Within the first 24 hours, we raised around 10.24% of our goal, and to those who chose to give, we cannot thank you enough. Your contributions make more of an impact on our team than we can express!

In the last couple of weeks, NSAC meetings have begun, and our research teams have already made lots of progress! We are so excited to continue working, and we look forward to competing in the spring. Stay tuned for more updates, and in the meantime, support your favorite part of SMSC by donating to our PhilanthroPete!

Thank you,

NSAC 2026
