Fund a Dream College Scholarship and change the life of a student of color!
Donating a WIF Scholarship is a wonderful way to help Dane County students of color as they begin their college adulation journey. The need is great! The scholarships can be awarded in memory of a loved one or to a student entering a specific field such as STEM, law, business, or health. Each year we received multiple generous donations to fund scholarships. We are immensely grateful and we thank these donors!
If you are interested in donating a scholarship, please contact Sally Hestad, sallyhestad@gmail.com.
Women In Focus offers giving opportunities:
- Donate $2500 to fully fund a one-year WIF Scholarship for a Dane County high school senior of color. If desired, the scholarship can be awarded in your name, or in memory of a loved one.
- Donate $5000 to fully fund a two-year WIF Scholarship for a Dane County high school senior of color. If desired, the scholarship can be awarded in your name, or in memory of a loved one.
- Donate $10,000 to fully fund one four-year WIF Scholarship for one Dane County high school senior of color. $2500 will be awarded each year for four years to the same scholar. If desired, the scholarship can be awarded in your name, or in memory of a loved one.
- Donate another amount of your choice. Your donation will go directly to the WIF Scholarship Fund. Donations to the WIF Scholarship Fund are tax-deductible—please consult your tax advisor.
Scholarship donors will be acknowledged in the Dream Scholarship Ball Program and on the WIF website and will have the opportunity to present their scholarship in the spring at our Scholarship Award Reception if desired.
