A Tradition Of Giving: USC employees committed to creating and sustaining university-community partnerships.

“The campaign provides opportunities for the community and the university to interact and for the students at local elementary schools to be involved in wonderful art projects.”
—Lynn Akers, teacher, L.B. Weemes Elementary School (works with UNO-funded Art in the Village program at her school)
