Two for Tuesday Returns Next Week

Thanks to the incredible support of the MPH community, the Two-For-Tuesday campaign has already raised: $54,991   We are humbled and grateful for the response we have received and for all that you do to keep student scholarships and campus initiatives thriving at MPH. THANK YOU!   Special thanks to our matching donors who offered four challenges on November 14, tripling and doubling the impact made by our generous community members. We couldn’t have done it without you!   For the next two Tuesdays in November we'll be sharing Two for Tuesday challenges, so stay tuned for details on how you can help us match dollar-for-dollar or donor-for-donor each Tuesday to support student access and scholarships through The MPH Fund.
