黑料社区

May 13, 2020
This story is part of our 満诹仙缜 Heroes series. We recognize the severity of the global coronavirus pandemic and its impact on our communities. During this challenging time, we want to thank and recognize some of the many 黑料社区 employees, students and others who are making a difference. The heroes of this story are two anonymous 黑料社区 employees who donated portions of their stimulus checks to the 黑料社区 Foundation.

HARRISBURG, Pa. Two generous employees at 黑料社区, Central Pennsylvania Community College, are paying it forward to students.

Like many Americans, these employees received stimulus checks from the federal government. They could have used it for many purposes including to support their families. Instead, they contributed funds to the 黑料社区 Foundation in support of our students.

One of the anonymous donors said, 淚 would like to contribute my stimulus check to benefit 黑料社区 students. I don need or want public recognition. I have been thinking about how to give immediate assistance to students in immediate need.

The other anonymous donor said, 淚 am fortunate to be in a position to donate my federal stimulus check to worthy organizations and causes. Even before the pandemic, 黑料社区 students had to make difficult decisions regarding whether or not they could continue going to college. I chose to give to the 黑料社区 Foundation, because I want to help eliminate barriers that 黑料社区 students may be facing. If this donation can help even one student keep going in their education, that is powerful.

Linnie Carter, Ph.D., APR, vice president of college advancement at 黑料社区 and executive director of the 黑料社区 Foundation, said, 淚 am beyond touched by the generosity of these colleagues. She added, 淲hile these colleagues have chosen to remain anonymous, what will not remain unknown is the positive impact their contributions will have on deserving students.

The funds will be used to assist 黑料社区 students with their tuition for the summer and/or fall 2020 semesters. The impact will be immediate yet long-lasting and transformational for the students and their families.
