Support the TU community on #givingTUesday

Get ready for #givingTUesday.

Giving Tuesday, a global movement built by individuals, families, organizations, businesses and communities in countries around the world, is the inspiration for TU’s own effort, also held on Dec. 1.

Nky S. McGinnis, Ph.D., director of the annual campaign, said members of the TU community can support any of the six colleges within the institution, Cook Library, athletics, the Office of Inclusion & Institutional Equity, BTU–Partnerships for Greater Baltimore, the Student Emergency and Food Insecurity Fund, Faculty & Staff Emergency Fund and the TU Fund.

Those looking to give can select their choice online.

“This is the season of gratitude and generosity, and it is important to acknowledge that there are those who are struggling during this pandemic and even more so during the holidays,” McGinnis says. “Here at Towson University, we always help when we can, so for this year’s #givingTUesday, we are supporting our students, faculty and staff in need. We are thankful for our successes, we are thankful for our opportunities and, most of all, we are thankful for each other.”
