Introduction:

Thanking all WAU donors for your generous giving through the years, helping WAU to grow and making impact in Wichita. During this Giving Tuesday, December 2nd, WAU is asking for donations to grow its Scholarship Fund, in order to give more meaningful amounts for a bigger impact. The cost of education is almost out of reach for many these days while student loans come with long-term challenges and not everyone can access them. This August we awarded $750 to five students. A monthly giving of any amount ($25, or $40 or $50 etc.) would create a significant increase by the end of a year. $50 per month could provide more than half of our next award target of $1,000 per student over a period of one year. Since 2018, we have awarded 23 scholarships. Looking to raise $4,000 with this campaign.
