Why I Give to the Maryland Charity Campaign: Yvette Mozie-Ross ’88

“As you peruse the Maryland Charity Campaign booklet, consider giving to an organization whose mission has personal meaning to you and your family. This year, I will be earmarking my contributions to the Big Brothers, Big Sisters of Central Maryland.
I served as a big sister right after I graduated from college. My ‘little sister,’ Chanel, and I spent many a day discussing her dreams and aspirations and the challenges growing up in a low income, single parent household community. I knew this challenge all too well. As a child growing up in a single parent home, I understand first-hand the importance of mentorship and can deeply appreciate the outreach efforts of organizations like Big Brother, Big Sisters.
I trust that you too will find among the list of non-profit organizations serving our communities, one that has significant meaning for you and you wish to support.”

Each year, our campus community reaches out through the Maryland Charity Campaign (MCC) to support our neighbors in the region and State, particularly those less fortunate. During these particularly stressful economic times, the needs of our communities are greater than ever.
Please help us reach our campus goal of 100% participation. The Campaign deadline is November 21. For more information, contact your department’s MCC coordinator or visit www.mdcharity.org.
