UMassGives 2022 Thank You!
Since 1967, UMass students have experienced historic sights, elegant tea parties, insightful tutors, and found amazing friendships during time spent in the Oxford Summer Seminar. Leading up to the program’s 55th summer, we are asking for your help to make the Seminar more accessible to all students. Your donations will benefit the Ernest Hofer Endowment Fund, which provides scholarships to seminarians who demonstrate a financial need and academic excellence.
On April 28 from 3-4 p.m., we need YOUR help to make this summer a success. After facing limitations brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic last summer, we are more than ready to return to Oxford in full swing this year with forty students. Please help us provide financial assistance to as many of these students as possible. We appreciate your ongoing support. Thank you and cheerio!
