Participants can donate by cash or check to the boxes available before and after each chapel service or can donate online. Simply click here, click “Give Online” on that page, and fill in the information box that will pop up. Make sure to select the “ATIC Initiative” in the drop down box provided. Our hope is that each student will cut his or her budget by $5 every month and donate that to the ATIC fund. Click here for more information.
