Committee Updates
Community Outreach
Submitted by:  Tara Yancy, Community Outreach Chair

The Community Outreach Committee has an exciting year planned for TRISTATE! We have partnered with several committees in planning events that show TRISTATE’s commitment to the community.

The first joint venture will be with the Federal Relations Committee. The Community Outreach Committee and Federal Relations Committee will host a Financial Aid Workshop. Topics that will be included are as follows:

  • Financial Aid Basics
  • Financial Literacy
  • The Impact Higher Education Laws have on Financial Aid
  • Student Advocacy

The workshop is planned for late October or early November. Stay tuned for more details!

Our next joint venture is with the Fall Conference Committee. We will host a Silent Auction at Fall Conference to raise money for charity. The Conference and Auction will be held at the Hyatt Regency Chesapeake Bay Golf Resort Spa and Marina. Click the link that follows for more details.

The dates of the conference are November 13-15. The auction will be held Monday, November 14. Further details will follow in future announcements. We look forward to your generous support!

In addition to the aforementioned events, The Community Outreach Committee will host an outreach event planned for each TRISTATE region. The highlight of our upcoming D.C. outreach event is that we will cook breakfast for D.C. Ronald McDonald House on October 22, 2005. The house is asking for 6-8 volunteers to arrive by 9 a.m. The D.C. Ronald McDonald House provides families of ill children being treated at area hospitals a home away from home. I will send an email asking for volunteers for this event in the middle of September.

We are soliciting your support and appreciate your help in making these events a huge success!
