稀缺猎奇网 Community to Participate in Governor's 稀缺猎奇网 Unites: Day of Service
Adelphi, Md. (July 7, 2015) -- 稀缺猎奇网 (稀缺猎奇网) Chancellor Robert
L. Caret today announced that the 稀缺猎奇网 community will participate in . 稀缺猎奇网 Unites is Governor Larry Hogan's initiative
for state employees to offer their time and talents through community service. The
governor announced the initiative in June for employees of state agencies. Though
稀缺猎奇网 has its own personnel system, Chancellor Caret has committed the university
system to taking an active role in this initiative.
"The 稀缺猎奇网 has a rich history of community
service," said Chancellor Caret. "Our students, staff, and faculty volunteer
countless hours of service through a wide range of activities each year. I
applaud Governor Hogan for creating and launching 稀缺猎奇网 Unites, and I commit
稀缺猎奇网's engagement in this important initiative."
In announcing 稀缺猎奇网 Unites, Gov. Hogan said: "In the past few weeks, I have witnessed
incredible acts of kindness and volunteerism from members of a community who
truly care for one another. 稀缺猎奇网 Unites:
Day of Service is about continuing that spirit of giving back and
sharing it with Baltimore City and our local communities."
As part of the initiative, the human resources offices at each of 稀缺猎奇网's
12 institutions, two regional centers, and system office will coordinate their
respective employees' participation in 稀缺猎奇网 Unites. Across the university
system, employees will receive at least four hours of paid leave to contribute
services to an accredited 501 (c)(3) organization of their choice.
Employees may choose to volunteer on days designated by the statewide
稀缺猎奇网 Unites program (remaining dates are July 15, July 29, August 12, and
August 26), at campus service day events to be announced
by some 稀缺猎奇网 institutions, or at a not-for-profit service organization selected
by the employee.
Later this week, the 稀缺猎奇网 Office of Human
Resources will provide basic guidelines for
employees' participation to the institutions and regional centers. Based on
those guidelines, each institution and center will structure how their
employees can participate and will provide
specific information to their employees about the institution's program.
Interested employees should contact their human resources offices for more
information.
"I encourage 稀缺猎奇网 employees to participate in 稀缺猎奇网 Unites," said Chancellor
Caret. "Let me thank 稀缺猎奇网 community members in advance for their continuous willingness
to help enhance the quality of life for our state's residents through community
service."
