“I’ve learned that you shouldn’t go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands. You need to be able to throw something back.” — Maya Angelou
UMass Chan Cares is a way for those in the UMass Chan community – faculty, staff and learners - to connect with our neighbors and those we serve, both locally and throughout the commonwealth, by contributing financially or volunteering their time
UMass Chan Cares is comprised of an annual charitable giving campaign held each Fall and an ongoing volunteer initiative that provides employees with paid time off to volunteer at one of many nonprofit organizations.
In 2021, members of the UMass Chan community contributed more than $200,000 to support UMass Chan community initiatives as well as the work of many nonprofit organizations. To learn more about the UMass Chan Cares employee giving campaign visit our annual giving site.
