Get Your Library Paver

Help us complete our exciting transformation of the Library with an enduring gift. Purchase one of the pavers that will be part of the design of a new space for the Claire T. Carney Library. The engraved 8-inch hexagon paver will become a lasting part of the UMass Dartmouth landscape. Each time you come back to campus, you can visit the terrace and be reminded of your commitment and support of UMass Dartmouth. You can celebrate your own graduation, honor a professor who made a difference for you, remember a loved one, or celebrate a special occasion. Please call 508.999.8200 with questions.

Engrave one paver for a donation of $250. All gifts are tax deductible to the extent allowed by law.
