Days of Giving Raises $331,271 for Student Scholarships
The NYMC community rose to the occasion for the seventh annual Days of Giving on March 26 and 27 and raised $331,271 for student scholarships. We received 255 gifts from 244 donors hailing from 25 states, along with matching gifts from a generous group of donors that will impact the lives of students in the SOM, SHSP, and GSBMS. "It's truly an honor to be part of this team and contribute to our program's mission of giving back," said Sunita Kumawat, an M.P.H. candidate and Days of Giving ambassador. Donations for Days of Giving may still be made to support student scholarships.
