Column Highlights Upward Bound Fundraising Efforts
A column in the Bangor Daily News focuses on the efforts of UMaine’s Upward Bound to raise funds to support the federally funded program which assists qualified students with improving their skills in high school and to prepare to end and succeed in college. The program includes an six-week residential summer experience on the UMaine campus in Orono. Upward Bound will team up with the motorcycle group STAR Touring and Riding Chapter 483 of Bangor for a two-day fundraiser beginning at 8 a.m. Saturday, May 21, at the University of Southern Maine campus in Portland, and will stop at all seven UMaine System campuses.
