• How it all started…

  • A few of Omondi Obura’s old Dartmouth rowing teammates, inspired by his greatness and irrepressible lightness of being, reconnected. It was fun to talk, but talk is for Harvard people.

  • ...and how it became a Fund.

  • We have worked with the Dartmouth Development Office to establish the new Omondi Obura Fund for Mental Health and Suicide Prevention to benefit Dartmouth's mental health and suicide prevention programs, with a preference for the Campus Connect Initiative. The Campus Connect Initiative is a mental health awareness, crisis intervention, and suicide prevention initiative.
