Give to Hillel on Giving Day!

Hillel of Salisbury University aims to provide, promote, and foster a climate that the Jewish community and its sympathizers can assemble and share their customs. We create an environment where members can build connections to their Jewish identity or familiarize themselves with it. Hillel provides the opportunity for Jewish students to connect with each other, as well as students who have an interest in Jewish culture. As an organization, Hillel participates in campus-wide service events, celebrates the holidays, and participates in events at the local synagogue Beth Israel Congregation.

When you choose to give back to Hillel, your gift provides resources that will enhance Jewish learning by funding holiday dinners, hamantaschen baking, Ocean City trips, and other fun events. Thank you for your continued support!"

Give to History on Giving Day!

The Department of History offers an invigorating learning experience that challenges students to ask not just what happened, but why it happened. The past is not simply a list of facts to be memorized, but it is a mystery to be unveiled in much the same way a detective solves a tricky case. Our faculty is dedicated to helping students discover the complexity of the human story as it has developed across a diverse cultural and physical landscape over time.

Our faculty need your help to give our students the practical experiences that reach beyond just history textbooks and incorporate historical documents and real world accounts. Your gift, no matter the size, combined with others, will help the History Department provide an incomparable educational experience to our students. Your investment will help provide global learning opportunities for students and support historical archives.

The Vision
Holloway Hall has been the center of the student experience since 1925. As the first building on campus, it has stood as a symbol of excellence while having the practicality of being everything to everyone at the birth of the Teachers College. The Social Room was part of the final phase of the building’s construction, opening in December 1932. It's appearance has changed very little in the nearly century since its completion.

The Need
As SU approaches its Centennial, investment in the enhancement of Holloway Hall’s Social Room is needed to expand programming offerings and to provide a more welcoming area for all who visit, including alumni, faculty, staff, students, donors and community members.

Naming Opportunities
Social Room Naming - $250,000
Fireplace - $50,000
Faculty Library Shelves (4 available) - $10,000
Benefactor Wall - $20,000 / $10,000 / $5,000

Hello SU Residence Life family!

I hope this message finds you well and reminiscing about your time with us. As we look back on your support this past year, we're reminded of the connection that exists between all of us in the Res Life family.

Last year, your incredible generosity on Giving Day played a pivotal role in supporting our programs. Thanks to your contributions, RA training kicked off in the fall with Camp Pecometh, providing our undergraduate staff with an invaluable experience that sets the tone for their roles on campus. This tradition, established years ago with Outward Bound, and rooted in outdoor adventure and personal growth, has been sustained through your support. Despite budget constraints, your collective donations have sent a message of the value you place on the RA experience and the importance of fostering a supportive community within our halls. This training experience not only assists Res Life staff at SU, but helps them well into their professional careers and personal lives. Exploring our personal limits remains the launching pad for RA training here at Salisbury and our collective donations tell others that you would like to see this tradition continue.

This Giving Day 2024 is our chance to shine again!

• Jenny M’99 and Jeff Orzolek have challenged fellow SU HRL alums to give. The Orzolek’s are pledging $1,000 to Residence Life if we reach 50 individual donors! Anything helps us reach our goal even as little as $5, $10, $20 or more!

• Tim Cureton and Noah Kegley, of Rise Up Coffee Roasters, will match $1,000 of HRL gifts and have challenged fellow SU Lifers to give whatever you can share.

• Finally, there is a very generous donor who has promised to match your alumni gift up to $50.00. Your $50 becomes $100!

If you are able to give, please know I intend to once again use any funds for Housing and Residence Life on this Giving Day to subsidize Camp Pecometh for your 2024-2025 Residence Life Family.

With the humblest of hearts,

Dave Gutoskey
Director
Housing & Residence Life

Give to Ice Hockey on Giving Day!

Salisbury University Ice Hockey has been a proud tradition since 1992. The players are serious athletes with the intention of competing at the highest level. The team holds an average of two-three games every weekend and plays a season consisting of around 20 games, a tournament showcase, and finally ending with an intense post-season single elimination playoffs. In addition to being a talented group of athletes, this club is also a family supporting each other both on and off the field.

A gift today to the Ice Hockey Club will provide funds for a new set of home and away jerseys to properly outfit the players. It will inspire a renewed sense of spirit as the students improve as athletes and continue to be successful. The team says new jerseys will allow them to properly represent Salisbury University in a clean, professional manner. Your gift, combined with others, will make a difference.
