Fundraising
Currently the MMM Program is asking for support of a critically important area we have identified within program, our need for scholarships.
As you may know, tuition only covers 55% of the cost of a premier graduate education. As a result, our students and the program depend on generous gifts from alumni and industry. By contributing to our scholarship fund you will benefit current and future students by providing important financial assistance. Additionally, since scholarship support allows the MMM program to attract and support top students, your support will also help sustain the quality of the alumni community as well as the value of your own degree.
Our MMM alumni have traditionally responded to fundraising needs of the schools and for this we are grateful. Now that we are asking for direct support of MMM, we are hoping that you will be even more generous and help us attain 100% participation.
To kick-off our first MMM scholarship initiative, we are excited to announce a $40,000 pledge by Paul Fichter (MMM ’97). Paul’s scholarship will provide $10,000 a year to a MMM student over the next four years. Please consider joining Paul and make a gift to MMM scholarships at any level that is comfortable to you. In combination, even small gifts can make a significant difference in our ability to offer scholarships to students who will help us take the MMM program to even greater heights.
