Faculty and Staff Appreciation Challenge
Faculty and Staff Appreciation Day
In honor of the 250 Mercersburg faculty and staff members who help transform students' lives every day, our goal is to secure gifts from 250 parent and alumni donors in 24 hours. Please consider making a gift to the 2017-2018 Annual Fund as part of our Faculty and Staff Appreciation Challenge by 11:59 p.m. EDT tonight (May 8).
Don't forget to mention a specific Mercersburg faculty or staff member or two when you make your gift—we will let them know they are appreciated!
