Subject: Call for Launch UMD Crowdfunding Projects

Description:
Launch UMD (http://www.launch.umd.edu) is now accepting applications for its
30-day crowdfunding rounds. What could you do with $5,000 or $10,000 or more,
to support a student project, trip, activity, lab, course or competition? Do
you have any projects coming up or things that you dream of doing but just
don’t have the necessary funding? UMD’s crowdfunding effort called Launch
UMD could provide the funding you need!

Crowdfunding is a great way to engage members of the UMD community, including
alumni and families of students, with specific, exciting projects. Money can
be used for things like equipment, competitions, sending students to a
conference or training or to conduct research; and sustainability and
community efforts.

The deadline to submit an application for the first fall round is October 2
(the second fall round deadline is November 2). Contact Abby Robinson at
[log in to unmask] if you have an idea that you want to propose and she will
provide feedback on your application before you submit it for review. To see
previously funded projects, visit https://www.launch.umd.edu/g/pastprojects.
