Lawrenceburg, IN– Ivy Tech Community College State Board of Trustees member, Marianne Glick, and her spouse, Mike Woods, have committed $500,000 in matching funds across the state for Ivy Tech’s newly established COVID-19 Relief Fund to assist students.
The COVID-19 Relief Fund will provide increased flexibility to assist the Lawrenceburg/Batesville campus in meeting unforeseen challenges head-on in the coming days. The campus specifically has $25,000 in matching funds available. ITCC State Board of Trustees member, Marianne Glick, and her spouse, Mike Woods pledged $15,000 as a dollar for dollar match. The Lawrenceburg/Batesville also has $10,000 from local resources to match two dollars for every dollar of the first $5000 raised, quadrupling every dollar of the first $5000 contributed. The funds will be entirely unrestricted charitable donations and gifts at any level help meet our campus’s time-sensitive needs. We must secure local funds by April 30, 2020 in order to benefit from the matching gifts.
“We wanted to do something to help Ivy Tech students at this challenging time,” Marianne and Mike shared. “We hope this gift will inspire others to open their hearts to enable our students to have access to the resources they need to stay in school and stay healthy.”
