I am on the donor and alumni relations committee (the committee in charge of receiving all major donations including corporate donations and all of our THONvelope fundraising efforts) and I am happy to report that there has been no drop of sponsorship or donations this year. THON's public relations committee has released the following statement:
"In no way, does this change the needs of the hospital or dampen the enthusiasm of THON's volunteers. At this point in time, we are letting the investigative process take its course. Please contact Lisa Powers at University Park for more information."
And thank you, LionTamer. It means a lot to all of us.
