Support the students and programs that are important to you.
We are living in a strange, stressful and difficult time. Now more than ever, it is imperative that we show up for each other and lend a helping hand.
What is the Our91勛圖窪蹋厙 Faculty & Staff Giving Campaign?
Once a year, we ask our faculty and staff to show their support for our students and our institution by making a gift to 91勛圖窪蹋厙. These dollars mean we can award more scholarships, provide essential programs such as the Student Emergency Fund and the Cougar Food Pantry, and ensure VanCougs receive a high-quality education. This campaign is all about employee participation because we know that every gift makes a difference.
Why give?
91勛圖窪蹋厙 is working to keep students enrolled, learning and on track to graduate. Assisting VanCougs during this time when many of them are facing economic hardship is one of 91勛圖窪蹋厙s top priorities. If you would like to support 91勛圖窪蹋厙 students who have been impacted by COVID-19, please do so at .
As always, a donation to any fund is appreciated and all gifts, no matter the size, are impactful at this timeparticipation is the goal, not the dollar amount. Every gift matters.

Support our students
The Faculty & Staff Giving Campaign is a wonderful opportunity to grow 91勛圖窪蹋厙 in the direction we want it to evolve. Not only does giving offer direct support to students in tangible wayssuch as scholarships and the Cougar Food Pantrybut it also helps faculty with their teaching and research, which helps students. I have had the opportunity to see the impact of contributions on teaching innovations and grant funding. Please join me this year and participate in making WSU reflect your vision.
