UMassGives 2022 Thank You!
We give PBS students the knowledge and experience they need to succeed! Your contributions through UMassGives will support student scholarships.
This year, the Department will match our total donations up to $2,500! Noteworthy upcoming seniors with commendable academic performance and financial need will have a chance to receive a $500 scholarship to help them complete their degree and take the next step in their career. These funds can help with tuition, graduate school application fees, or even getting ahead in their job search.
Please help us support our students’ success by providing funds for senior scholarships! HELP US WIN our Thursday, April 28th POWER HOUR from 12 – 1 PM! The fund with the most individual donations during this hour will receive a bonus prize of up to $2,000. *
Each gift is an expression of support for our department. Give just $5 for the future of our students.
Follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram and share our #UMassGives posts! Look for our hashtags #MeetMeInTobin and #UMassPBS for inspirational content. Ask your contacts to support Psychological and Brain Sciences during our Thursday, April 28th POWER HOUR from 12 – 1 PM!
