This year, the statewide goal for the Campaign is $3,000,000.

Imagine how many children, students, and families will benefit

from our combined efforts across the state of Maryland. BSU

is a caring community with a concern for causes that span

human services, education, and the environment. With that in

mind, our goal this year is to raise $13,500 and to have at

least 25 percent of the BSU community participate.

I would like to extend a special thank you to this year’s faculty

and staff co-chairs, Dr. Marian Rucker-Shamu, Interim Dean,

Thurgood Marshall Library, and Mr. George Jones Jr., Staff

Assistant, College of Education, as well as to all of our

Department Champions – your service enables the entire

BSU community to participate in the Campaign. Within the

next week, you will receive your Maryland Charity Campaign

pledge card from your Department Champion. We are

committed to exceeding our Campaign goals again this year,

so please take a moment to choose a charity and support a

cause that is dear to you and your family. A gift of $1 per

workday, totaling $260 per year, could provide a daily snack

for an abused child in an after-school program or finance the

raising and transplanting of 5,200 pollution-filtering oysters.

Every contribution, no matter how small, makes a difference!
