Personal & Social Responsibility

Designating February as the “Month of Gratitude,” the SPC hosts giveaways and challenges via their Instagram account.

A CMC student-led effort to encourage student philanthropy is inspiring current CMCers from all class years to give back by donating their time, talent, treasure, and ties.

Launched in spring 2020, as students found themselves separated from the CMC community due to the pandemic, the Student Philanthropy Council (SPC) was organized as a way for students to come together to leave a positive impact on CMC.
