OLLI offers its thanks to our donors during this year and in years past. Your generous donations enable OLLI to continue to provide high-quality intellectual programming in the Champaign-Urbana area and beyond. Especially since OLLI lost designated annual state funding in 2017, your support has been essential to our success. Thanks also to all of you who have had gifts given in your honor. Your own contributions of time, expertise, and welcoming friendship are the very core of the OLLI community. Lastly, we want to offer our thanks to those who donate in memory of others who are no longer with us. Thank you not only for your donation, but also for your invitation to all of us to remember wonderful friends and family.
