Award Goal Surpassed!

December 31, 2020

Cohort 2019 extends its deep gratitude for the overwhelming support of the Equity & Justice Spirit Award. We could never have imagined that we would meet and then surpass our goal. We know that the legacy we leave will impact the lives of many more students. Thank you for your support. Thank you for believing in our vision. Thank you for supporting equity & justice!

Gratefully Expanding our Vision

July 21, 2020

Wow!

 

Thank you to all who have joined us in contributing to our vision of equity and justice. In less than one week, over 40 people stepped up to contribute a combined $5,805, surpassing our ambitious $5,000 target. This is a true testament to your dedication and vision for the future, and we thank you. 

 

Because this work does not end here, we are raising our goal to $10,000. This amount is particularly meaningful because it will allow us to set up an endowed fund that will last in perpetuity. The EngagePitt webpage continues to accept donations towards this new goal, and we encourage you to share it with others or, if you can, consider chipping in again. We look forward to updating you again soon as we continue to push for equity and justice.
