Welcome to UMBC's 2023 Maryland Charity Campaign (MCC). Each year, faculty and staff join their colleagues across the state to support local nonprofits that serve those in need in our communities.

Last year, the state raised almost $2,000,000 to support local nonprofits. At UMBC, more than 700 faculty and staff donated over $240,000. Your generosity allowed UMBC to once more be one of the top contributing organizations across all state agencies and University System of Maryland campuses. 

You can participate in the campaign by giving online. Make your donation using Maryland's secure online portal through payroll deduction or credit card. The portal also provides instructions on how to designate a nonprofit to receive your donation. If you would like, you can also donate to the UMBC Foundation through the MCC portal, to support our students in need.

In the coming weeks, you will hear from your department's MCC coordinator. They will provide more information about how to get involved and what inspires them to give. These colleagues are an essential part of making this campaign a success each year.

Thank you for your generosity and your support of our neighbors, both next door and across Maryland.
