    <p>Did you know that last year more than 65% of UMBC’s full-time undergraduate students applied for financial aid?</p>
    <p>Unfortunately, more than a quarter of those students didn’t receive all—if any—of the support they so desperately need. What’s worse is that it’s often a very small amount of money that holds students back from getting the education they need to survive and succeed in today’s economy.</p>
    <p>That’s why we’re turning to you. <strong>The great thing about Retrievers is that you know the importance of community support.</strong></p>
    <p>Together, <a href="https://securelb.imodules.com/s/1325/UMBC-template-social.aspx?sid=1325&amp;gid=1&amp;pgid=564&amp;cid=1258" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">we can make sure that our students finish school</a> and get the degree that will help them throughout their lives.</p>
    <p>Every gift, no matter the size, will move us forward. Please support UMBC students with a gift, today. When you do, you’ll change someone’s life.</p>
