The Department of Human Resources would like to congratulate the spring 2023 Job Well Done Group Project Award recipients.
The Foods for Fines project was selected for the spring 2023 Job Well Done Group Project Award. The project team consisted of Gina Hurney, Parking Services, Harry Wilhelm, Parking Services, Lydia Sannella Retriever Essentials, and Ariel Barbosa, Retriever Essentials.
UMBC's Retriever Essentials and Parking Services teamed up to develop Food for Fines. This program was created to collect food and toiletries for UMBC students facing food insecurity.
The project group collected approximately 300 pounds of food. The group plans to build upon the success of the program and make it a semi-annual programming effort.
The Food for Fines project group would like to encourage UMBC community members to consider making a donation to Retriever Essentials. Learn more about the current donation needs and where donations can be dropped off here.
