40th Maryland Charity Campaign Underway at SU

By SU Public Relations

SALISBURY, MD---Each year, the Maryland Charity Campaign provides more than $2 million for nearly 1,000 non-profit organizations throughout the state thanks to the generosity of state employees.

SU faculty and staff are encouraged to support this year’s 40th annual campaign, “Making a Difference Together.”

Through Monday, December 13, Maryland state employees participating in the program may donate to their choice of organizations such as food banks, mental health programs, homeless services, animal shelters and more. Organizations eligible for support through the program include the SU Foundation, Inc. (code 52-1127369).

“In years past, we have seen a significant increase in participation from everyone at SU, which is something to be proud of,” said Dr. Sherry Maykrantz, associate professor of public health and SU Maryland Charity Champaign chair. “Let’s keep the momentum going.”

The committee is encouraging all faculty and staff to consider giving $1 per pay ($26 a year).

“Let’s show how we can make a difference together,” said Maykrantz.

Those who give will be entered into weekly drawings for prizes including monetary, restaurant and hotel gift cards, and items from the Baltimore Orioles.
