Investing in Student Success
The Elevating Impact Events also give us the special opportunity to recognize WGU scholarship recipients—remarkable students whose educational journeys have been made possible through the generosity of donors. These moments celebrate not only the perseverance and achievements of our students but also the individuals and organizations who passionately invest in their success.
Every contribution to WGU Advancement directly supports student scholarships, opening doors to education and creating lasting change in lives, families, and communities. We are honored to celebrate these inspiring stories and the everlasting power of giving.
