#UMassGives 2018
As the pioneer in the sport management industry, we aspire to always maintain our reputation of excellence at all levels. For this to continue we ask for your help.
Making a gift to the Mark H. McCormack Department of Sport Management is more important than ever, as we strive to enhance student experience and funding. With your help, we can ensure that our program - The Business School for Sports Business™ - remains at the cutting edge of our industry for the next 45 years of our history.
UMassGives is a two day event when alumni, students, parents, faculty, and friends inspire and encourage each other to give to the college. Last year, during UMassGives, we came together to raise just over $20,000 for our department. Your donations allowed us to fund high need scholarships, take students to industry conferences, support extracurricular activities and more. This year, we've set out to raise $25,000 over these two days. With your help we're confident we can achieve this goal!
This year, your contributions will enable our department to sustain and enhance the following important initiatives:
- CURRENT STUDENT SUPPORT at both the undergraduate and graduate levels
- RECRUITMENT of the next wave of sport business leaders
- NETWORK BUILDING amongst our current students and alumni
- REPUTATION DEVELOPMENT through targeted outreach
Thank you for your continued support!
