Sheri LehmanBlack Friday and Cyber Monday gave you some good deals, but #GivingTuesday will make your season brighter. Today is the second annual #GivingTuesday, a movement to create a national day of giving to kick off the holiday season. Chapman University is happy to participate by providing many ways for our community – faculty, staff, students, and alumni – to give back!
Here are three ways to give with your fellow Panthers:
1. Casa Teresa Donation Drive, Student Union, December 3.
Between 3 and 9 p.m. today, Chapman Enactus is hosting a donation drive to benefit Casa Teresa. Casa Teresa provides temporary homes and support to expectant mothers. Donate clothing and necessities for women and babies, all while enjoying some hot cocoa together!
2. Mary’s Kitchen Donation Drive, December 4 – 19.
In keeping with tradition, the Human Resources Office is partnering with Mary’s Kitchen for the annual donation drive. Mary’s Kitchen provides meals, hot showers, and washing machines for homeless individuals in Orange County. From December 4 – 19, you can donate toiletries and supplies like shampoo, soap, toothbrushes, and laundry detergent to assist in the non-profit’s daily operations. Bins are available in:
- Admission Office, Argyros Forum 213
- Office of the Chancellor, Memorial Hall, 2nd floor
- Human Resources, Demille Hall
- Student Union front desk, Argyros Forum
- University Advancement work room, 633 W. Palm Ave.
3. The Chapman Fund, December.
Donations and gifts to The Chapman Fund benefit scholarships for academically promising students, faculty excellence, student enrichment programs such as travel and research, and emerging opportunities such as career development and campus renovation projects. The next generation of Panthers relies on the generosity of those who attend before them. In addition to the holiday spirit, let’s show our Panther Spirit! Give a gift today.
