Our Crowdfunding Groups
Terps4Terps, coordinated by the University of Maryland’s Omicron Delta Kappa - Sigma Circle, is raising funds to support UMD students and families personally affected by Hurricanes Harvey and Irma.There are over 300 current UMD students from regions affected by the recent Hurricanes.
