Employees who donated to the 2015-2016 Blue Fund campaign gathered this morning for “Craig’s Eggs,’’ a thank-you event to celebrate the impact they made on NEOMED students this past fiscal year. Attendees enjoyed a delicious breakfast of made-to-order omelets cooked by Craig Eynon, director of alumni relations and annual giving, as well as good conversation with fellow employee donors.
As of June 30, 2016, contributions to the Blue Fund totaled more than $412,000, surpassing the 2015-2016 campaign goal of $400,000 by more than $12,000. Of that total, 38.9% of NEOMED employees gave $80,500 in Blue Fund contributions, up from last year’s 37.2% of employees who gave $72,800. This generosity represents a significant commitment to our students in terms of support for scholarships, academic resources and other critical needs.
Special thanks to the many employees who gave generously to help make the campaign another huge success this year and to everyone who attended Craig’s Eggs.
