40 alumnae/i, spanning more than 25 graduation years and across multiple nations, are reunited! Graduates from Goucher’s Red Hot Blue (“RHB”) contemporary a capella music ensemble have released a creative song supporting Goucher's current Black students and their alma mater during a time of national unrest due to the COVID-19 pandemic and a reawakening to racial inequity in America.
RHB alumnae/i are supporting and encouraging giving through this project to be equally distributed to the Greater Goucher Fund and Umoja, the Black Student Union.
All gifts will be made in honor of Red Hot Blue.
