Claudia Donald Memorial Bench

We invite you to honor the life and legacy of Claudia Donald, Executive Director of Digital Strategy at UMass Amherst, by contributing to the dedication of a memorial bench on campus.

This bench will serve as a lasting tribute to Claudia’s impact on our campus and in our hearts—a place for reflection, remembrance, and connection.

Your gift will help us celebrate Claudia’s memory in a meaningful way, creating a space that embodies the spirit of community she helped foster.
