Kudos to Emily Martin: she is our fantastic student worker in the Foundation department! Every month, she makes thank you phone calls to people who made donations to the NMC Foundation in the previous month.

Emily noticed that many donors wanted to know about students in the program to which they made a donation, and she couldn’t always answer those questions. Emily took the initiative to recruit and train some of her peers to make thank you calls.

Now, she can have a student in the Maritime Academy, for instance, make the thank you call to a GLMA donor. The donor can hear about the experiences of cadets, and cadets can make connections with GLMA alumni and supporters.

Great job Emily for identifying a need and creating a solution!
