The Retriever, the student-run newspaper of UMBC, is hosting a panel of several current and former UMBC students who participated in cross-country philanthropic service events this summer to speak about their experiences. This event will take place on Thursday, September 21, 2017 at 7pm, in Lower Flat Tuesdays in the Commons.
The purpose of this event is to promote awareness of the awesome impact of service to others and give these fellow Retrievers the opportunity to share the stories of their life-changing experiences from this summer.
