The Maynard-Karlstrom
Matching Gift Challenge Grant
Olivia Maynard and Olof Karlström have generously challenged the Department and its Scandinavian supporters to provide a gift of up to $50,000 to the Scandinavian Studies Endowment for each contribution made to the Swedish Language Studies Fund or Endowment. The matching gift challenge is for gifts received between March 1, 2004 and December 31, 2008. The fund is used to support all aspects of the Scandinavian program including public events, books and other material for the program, as well as scholarships for student exchanges, internships and the spring study tour. Be a part of the Scandinavian legacy -- donate now! Every dollar you donate will be doubled through the challenge grant and if your employer provides matching donations it could be tripled! If you would like additional information on donating to the program please contact Sheri Sytsema-Geiger at sytsema@umich.edu.
