The USM Foundation exists to be a catalyst for transformation at the University of Southern Maine. By engaging with alumni, community and employer partners, we are fostering a culture of philanthropy to support the career aspirations of our students and the strategic vision of USM, today, tomorrow and forever.
We serve the University of Southern Maine with campuses in Portland, Gorham, Lewiston and online.
Volunteers provide our students with invaluable career-building experience and connections through programs such as the USM Community Career Network. There are also many opportunities for alumni and employer partners to volunteer on boards and provide volunteer support for events.
