Special thanks was given to everyone involved in the Maryland Charity Campaign on Wednesday, January 19, at a luncheon in the University Center.
Among the guests were members of the cabinet, campaign coordinators and other staff involved. Representatives from the Maryland Charity Campaign spoke along with President Freeman Hrabowski and Provost Elliot Hirshman.
Lisa Akchin, assistant to the president, began the presentation by thanking lead coordinator Dorothy Anderson for her tireless effort with the campaign. “Dorothy has been described as persistent with a light touch. She is an extraordinary role model,” Akchin said.
Both Provost Hirshman and President Hrabowski spoke about the honor that UMBC has received by achieving its goal of 1,000 donors.
"UMBC has a strong tradition of maintaining core values," said Hirshman. "And with the Maryland Charity Campaign, that is evident."
President Hrabowski spoke about the commitment UMBC has to helping those less fortunate.
"You’ve heard me say this before, but I’ll say it again. It’s a quote I’ve used often. ‘I’d rather be blind than have sight and not be able to see.’ UMBC is able to see the work that needs done. UMBC is able to see the hungry children in the streets of Baltimore who need our support. UMBC sees what’s happening locally and extends generosity willingly. I’m proud to be part of a campus that sees."
