Call for Alumni Mentors!
Register by July 15
Do you want a fun way to connect with current students and give back to your alma mater? You should become an Alumni Mentor! By volunteering as a mentor, you’ll be matched with a student based on similar interests or backgrounds. You’ll help your mentee learn what to expect in school, how to approach challenges, gain career advice and valuable insights.
Mentors can make a real difference in the lives of students and help contribute to their success. Once you are matched with a mentee, you can decide how and how often you want to connect, which can happen via email, phone, video chat, text, or in-person. Even a small amount of time can make a large impact.
Just click here to register!
You’ll be directed to create a profile and complete a brief survey which will be used to ensure that you and your mentee are a good fit. Additional information will be shared via email and text message about how to use the online platform – administered by
Mentor Collective
– as well as all the support you’ll need to start and sustain your mentorship. You can also find additional background on the program and resources

Millersville University Extends “Imagine the Possible” Campaign
|
|
In light of the magnitude of the challenges facing Millersville University students and their families as a result of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, Millersville President Daniel A. Wubah has announced an extension of the “Imagine the Possible” fundraising campaign to support student success. The “Imagine the Possible” campaign is the first fundraising campaign in the history of the University focused entirely on students.
When the campaign launched in July 2017 with a $32 million goal to raise funds for student scholarships, athletics and student experiences, no one imagined that as of June 2020, the campaign would be at more than $44.8 million in support — over 140% to goal.
To date, through the campaign, generous donors gave over $14.3 million in new scholarship funds for students, over $4.6 million in funds to support Marauder Athletics and over $25.9 million to support student experiences like student faculty research, study abroad, internship stipends, and funds to support unique student learning experiences at the brand new Lombardo College of Business. The length and goal for the extension will be determined at a later time.
