2025 MiddWinter Challenge Thank You!

Thank You for Supporting the MiddWinter Challenge

Thank you again for making a gift to Middlebury in support of the MiddWinter Challenge. With the help of generous donors like you, we raised more than $700,000 for Middlebury and our students!

While we fell short of our goal of 2,500 gifts, we are so grateful to the many alumni, parents, faculty, staff, and friends who stepped up for Middlebury. Together, you’re making Middlebury stronger, more accessible, and more impactful.

Thanks for stepping up to the MiddWinter Challenge!

For Every Future: The Campaign for Middlebury

For Every Future: The Campaign for Middlebury is the largest, most comprehensive effort of its kind in Middlebury history. Now entering its public phase, it will raise $600 million in new investment from alumni, parents, and friends. The institution is already more than halfway toward that goal, with commitments totaling $465 million.

Middlebury also seeks to engage 85 percent of undergraduate alumni through the campaign. 71 percent of undergraduate alumni have already contributed by making gifts, volunteering, or participating in campus, regional, or online events.
