UND CONNECT supports four new community-engaged projects

Four faculty-led projects advancing education, inclusion, community well-being and regional economic development have been selected to receive UND CONNECT funding for fall 2026.

UND CONNECT awards grants of up to $5,000 to partnerships that bring together regional needs and University of North Dakota expertise. The program gives faculty and students opportunities to apply their knowledge beyond campus as they help community organizations expand services, develop resources and address local challenges.

Supported upcoming projects involve the Bridges Community Choir; the Spanish Storytime Project; an early childhood music education initiative at Grand Forks Head Start; and an AI communication toolkit for local businesses.
