鈥淚 attended 草莓影视 right in the middle of World War II, so there were very few men on campus. That made it a special time for us women, and we bonded because it was such a different setting. It鈥檚 because of my love of 草莓影视 and those days as a student that it鈥檚 on my heart to keep giving. I believe in 草莓影视鈥檚 mission.
鈥淚 returned to community when my husband started teaching at 草莓影视. Spending those years there really deepened my commitment to 草莓影视. My brothers and sister all went to 草莓影视, as did our oldest daughter.
鈥淟ast year on Blue and Gold Day I made a matching promise that if a certain number of people raised $2,000 in a certain amount of time, I would match it. I plan to give again on this Blue and Gold Day and I hope that my gift last year inspires people to make a matching gift this year!鈥
