San José State University’s Advancement team is midway through it’s annual Spartans Supporting Spartans campaign in which committee members solicit donations from campus faculty and staff to support the many exciting things that are happening on campus. The goal this year is to collect donations from at least 300 donors, or about 10 percent of the faculty and staff on campus.
Members of the SJSU night custodial staff hold up Spartan Supporting Spartans pennants after making a donation to support students on campus.
The theme this year is “My Grounds for Giving…” and team members are taking out moveable coffee carts with treats to various locations on campus.
Upcoming events are:
- April 2, from 9-10:30 a.m. near the Library
- April 8, from 2-3:30 p.m. near MacQuarrie Hall and HR
- April 15, from 9-10:30 a.m. near Washington Square Hall
Donors will receive a free T-shirt while supplies last and can make a donation in honor of a colleague. Donation forms allow donors to write in which department/scholarship they want to support or to select from a few general options including RSCA, general scholarship funds or scholarships for SJSU staff.
