College of AGNR Gears Up for Scholarship Day 2014

24-hour giving event supports scholarships for students across campus

December 1, 2014

What can we do in one day?

On Wednesday, December 10th, the University of Maryland is calling on all Terps to come together to support student scholarships during 24 hours of giving!

Last December, more than 1,000 donors raised nearly $250,000 in just one day. This year, we’re counting on you to give to the College of Agriculture and Natural Resources (AGNR) so we can help students achieve their dreams!

Many students, like animal science major Melissa Shaughness, rely on scholarships to stay in school during times of hardship. Watch the video below as Melissa shares how scholarship donations kept her at UMD following a family tragedy:

There will be a friendly competition with matching funds up for grabs for the programs with the highest participation and with the most dollars raised. Help AGNR grab some of that prize money to give back to our students!
