Thanks for Visiting Maryland Day!

April 25, 2015

Thanks to all of you who came to visit us on Maryland Day, as well as everyone who donated! We were able to raise over 100 donations today, and we only have you all to thank! Thank you very much once again, and we'll make sure to keep you posted about project updates!

Closing in on the goal and hopefully surpassing it!

April 30, 2015

A heartfelt thanks to all who have supported us thus far in our campaign! Maryland Day was a huge success: we made great strides toward achieving our fundraising goal, and were humbled by the interest and support the wider Maryland community showed us. Because we had the highest number of unique donors contribute to our LaunchUMD efforts, the University has donated an additional $1,500 to our campaign. As our final week on the LaunchUMD platform approaches, momentum is not waning -- we are excited to see how far past 100% we can go! Many thanks to all of our donors, past, present, and future.
