Kris Wood is fundraising
Support Future Biophysicists in Kevin's Memory
Kevin Wood, a proud husband and father and an accomplished physicist, passed away on September 28, 2024 in Ann Arbor, MI. All of us who love Kevin know that he had many passions: His family and friends, his cherished Kentucky basketball, biking, and reading among them. A deeply committed teacher and mentor with an empathetic heart, one of Kevin's chief passions centered on supporting the next generation of physicists and biophysicists eager to take on tomorrow's challenges. In that spirit, Kevin's colleagues in the Department of Biophysics at the University of Michigan are establishing a memorial fund to support biophysics graduate students in need of financial support to expand their educational opportunities. 100% of funds raised through this GoFundMe page will support this memorial fund.

Thank you for contributing to Kevin's memory and legacy.

Ethan McComas MPulse Scholarship
Music was a huge, joyous, important part of Ethan's life. He had a beautiful expressive voice & huge range. University of Michigan MPulse youth vocal music summer camp was the highlight of his singing experience both years he attended. Those summer weeks were among the happiest of his life. He came home fired up and excited. He loved the camaraderie, the dedication, the hard work, the inspired teachers, the friends that meant so much to him. He was dazzled by the preview of college life camp provided, and getting to hang out in Ann Arbor. And he really loved the music the group created -- hearts wide open, singing directly from their souls as a multifaceted, nuanced, powerful whole.

Ethan was also passionate about social justice. He was the most empathetic person I've ever known, ever since he was tiny. He wanted everyone to have opportunities, fun, love. He was sweet and kind. He really cared, and he let people know it.

Ethan would be so proud to know he had a scholarship to his beloved MPulse program in his name, established so that more talented kids had a chance to enjoy the magical summer singing experiences that meant so much to him. Please help set up a memorial endowment to provide funding for students in need. We, his family, would be so grateful to know that Ethan's warm heart and sweet voice could carry on in this legacy.

Wilddeer Open: Sawyers Light 2021
Our son Sawyer was born with a condition called Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS). We spent 6 weeks at C.S. Mott Children's Hospital in Ann Arbor, where Sawyer was born, had open heart surgery, and spent time recovering and healing. We were extremely fortunate to have an immense support system of family and friends around us, as well as jobs that allowed us to pour our entire lives into Sawyer for that period of time. It seemed the majority of people in similar situations were considerably less fortunate than us.

Before Sawyer was born, my wife Danielle and I had plans of creating a charity to support other families going through similar journeys with HLHS and other CHDs. While Sawyer was with us, our other two children Annika and Noah used to sing “This Little Light of Mine” to him every time he made a peep. This inspired us to create “Sawyers Light” to carry the same message of hope, strength, and love that Sawyer brought to all of us in his short time here.

Our goal with Sawyer's Light is to provide support and encouragement to families going through the incredibly challenging experience of helping a child heal. We have partnered with the Save A Heart program at Mott to help direct funds and resources from Sawyers Light to the families that are in need.

The WildDeer Open is our annual disc golf tournament fundraiser in support of Sawyers Light and The Save A Heart program! This year's event is takin g place on October 23 at Deerfield Disc Golf course in Mount Pleasant, MI.

ASME - U of M Chapter is fundraising
ASME Fundraiser for COVID-19 Relief
With the rapid spread of COVID-19 throughout our communities, the staff members at Michigan Medicine have been doing everything they can to treat patients and save lives.

In order to promote social distancing and prevent further spread of the virus, all student organizations at the University of Michigan have had their events cancelled for the rest of the semester. The University of Michigan chapter of the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) has decided to contribute our remaining funds towards supporting the Michigan Medicine COVID-19 Emergency Fund.

By donating to the Michigan Medicine COVID-19 Emergency Fund, you can support decreasing the turnaround time for COVID-19 testing, additional staffing to care for patients, the purchase of equipment to care for patients, the establishment of more drive-through testing stations, and a broad range of emerging opportunities to advance patient care and research.

ASME will match up to $1000 in donations in order to encourage our community to support our medical workers.

If you are able, please help us contribute to our hospitals as they work curb the effects of this global pandemic.

Stay safe and healthy, & Go Blue!
