About OLLI
The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at UNCW is one of 125 prestigious institutes founded by Bernard Osher since 1997 for seasoned learners 50+. Since 2005, OLLI at UNCW has received two generous endowments from the Bernard Osher Foundation to support our programs.
Osher, a graduate of Bowdoin College, is retired from a successful career in banking and investing. Along with his wife, Barbro, he has become one of the nation's most generous individual supporters of higher education.
The Oshers are true philanthropists providing the means and opportunities for people to enrich their lives through the arts and higher education. Their foundation supports a wide range of educational and cultural initiatives for lifelong learners.
