Do Good Month
Do Good is the university-wide commitment to create a campus that empowers individuals to change our world for good. Your Alumni Association is committed to continuing this Maryland tradition by nurturing a culture of philanthropy, volunteerism and advocacy across our global network of alums.
During the month of April, Terps come together to Do Good in their communities, in addition to celebrating the impact alums have had over the past year. We challenge you to take action and join us in one or more ways to give back.
Join us for our first-ever Terp Volunteer Challenge! Register to receive a packet of materials that will challenge and inspire you to Do Good throughout your community.
Once you register with your preferred mailing address, a packet will be mailed to you, including a Terp shell board of various ways to volunteer.
Once you complete the shell, submit this form and be entered to win Amazon gift cards and a UMD swag bag!
Details on each task on the challenge board can be found below.
It's just that simple! Put on some Maryland Terps gear, gather up some friends and clean up around your neighborhood or help out at a local shelter. Take a photo and share it on social media by using #StayFearlessUMD
The VolunTerp newsletter is sent out every other month, highlighting upcoming opportunities to volunteer either on campus or virtually. Update your email subscription categories by visiting the alumni directory.
Connect with fellow alums over a meal together. It could be brunch, happy hour, or dinner. We want to encourage you to gather with Terps, reminisce about your time while on campus, and share what you have been up to since your days in College Park. Please complete the interest form to get started.
