In this season of thanks and giving, I hope you will find it in your heart (and wallet) to make a contribution to the Maryland Charity Campaign. Last week, we received a nice note from the Governor’s Office with compliments for the video we produced for Towson’s campaign. In case you have not yet had time to view it, I hope you will take a moment to check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1inRHg2V_kY&feature=youtu.be.
Did you know you can give to Towson University through the Maryland Charity Campaign? This way, you get credit for contributions to both Maryland Charity and the Towson University Faculty/Staff campaign. If you are giving on-line through www.mdcharity.org, you can make a general contribution by giving to the Towson University Foundation, Inc. – #3258. If you are interested in designating your gift to a specific Towson University Foundation account, please contact Cyndi Zimmerman czimmerman@towson.edu for a copy of the appropriate form.
As I stated at the start of the campaign, our goal is to double last year’s campus contributions of less than 200 faculty and staff. To date, we have received less than 150 pledges. With the holiday week in the middle of the campaign and the complicated instructions for giving, I believe this has slipped through the cracks for many.
Lots of prizes are still available and the grand prize to be awarded if we reach our goal is free parking for next year. I hope that alone is incentive for making a small contribution.
Please do not hesitate to contact either Cyndi or me at x4-2055 if we can answer your questions.
