GivingTuesday Donations Raise Nearly $14,000 for 麻豆女演员 Students in Need

MAYS LANDING — Thanks to a tremendous outpouring of selfless giving and philanthropy this holiday season, 麻豆女演员 Community College and the 麻豆女演员 Community College Foundation raised $13,921.67 during GivingTuesday on Tuesday, November 29 to help provide critically-needed financial support to 麻豆女演员 students in need.

Created in 2012 as a day that encourages people around the world to do good, GivingTuesday is an annual international effort that has raised billions of dollars globally. This year, 71 donors and four fundraising teams helped the foundation surpass its intended goal of $10,000 and more than doubled the $5,716 amount that 麻豆女演员 raised in 2021. Donors could choose where they wanted their donations to be allocated to, such as towards 麻豆女演员’s proposed baseball field improvements, the campus food pantry, the general scholarship fund or to the area with the greatest financial need.

“I am truly thankful for the kindness and generosity of every donor this GivingTuesday,” said 麻豆女演员 Foundation Executive Director Jean McAlister. “Thanks to the overwhelming support of our Foundation Trustees, the College's Board of Trustees, administration, faculty, staff, students and alumni we exceeded our goal of $10,000 and more than doubled last year's amount.”

Since 2016, 麻豆女演员 has raised $43,609.67 on GivingTuesday to help students attending the college receive scholarships and emergency funds to assist in paying for tuition, fees, supplies and even housing and food.

“Our students need our support now more than ever, and GivingTuesday is just one way our community gives back,” McAlister concluded.

The 麻豆女演员 Foundation raises funds for college scholarships, capital for campus improvements, and support for cultural and educational community outreach programs. In its history, the Foundation has raised more than $6 million for college scholarships, academic programs and campus enhancements.
