Message: [QUOTE="PopcornHatKid, post: 2742819, member: 6559"] Just wanted to provide a quick update that we are very proud of and feel that it is important to share to express our vision for this project. As I am sure many of you are aware, last week the University announced a scholarship in the memory of Alex Schachter, the 14-year-old boy who was killed in the mass shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School in Parkland, Florida in February. He was a lifelong UConn fan and was hoping to attend post graduation as a member of the marching band. We were able to reach out to his family that lives in Connecticut to offer them tickets to as many games as they requested for this upcoming season. Throughout the season, the UConn Marching band will be honoring Alex with the playing of his favorite song from Chicago 25-6-to-4. It is our honor to send them to games to be able to see this. The fact that the marching band has been able to rally around Alex and push forward his spirit is exactly what makes us proud to be a part of UConn Nation. These are the types of experiences that happen across Universities all over this country, and we are trying to make sure that everyone has an opportunity to see them. Sports can often be more than just a game, and these are the examples that show how special they can be. We hope you will choose to donate to our cause. These were the types of opportunities that we know we can help with. Please feel free to reach out with any questions. Thank you!
