TerpsChoice - Help the Band Get New Uniforms
Posted April 18th, 2011, 10:18 pm by Marianne Kassabian
Help the Mighty Sound of Maryland get new band uniforms by participating in TerpsChoice, the university's new social giving effort that seeks to make a big impact through small contributions.
Go to http://terpschoice.umd.edu to make your gift in any amount from $10 to $250. You can vote/donate as many times as you'd like between Feb. 1 and April 30, but only once per day. All of the money donated by the end of the campaign will go to the cause that receives the most votes.
The minimum donation amount per vote is $10. If you'd like to donate more than $10, we recommend you make the minimum donation once per day, so you can cast several votes over several days.
If you're a Tweeter or Facebooker, please help spread the word to family and friends to get us over the top.
Remember - your vote won't count unless you make a donation at the same time. There isn't much time left, so make your TerpsChoice today.
