Since 2019 the Association’s endowed Scholarship Fund has provided funding for one scholarship awarded annually by the university’s colleges. Special gifts have made it possible to offer more than one scholarship for the 2021-22 academic year.
The Association is participating in the Huskies United event to raise funds to increase its endowment in order to fully fund two scholarships in future years with the assistance of unlocking gifts. After 10 gifts are received an unlocking gift of $500 will be made. After another 10 gifts are received an unlocking gift of $1,000 will be made. If a total of 30 or more gifts are received an unlocking gift of $1,500 will be made.
The goal for this funding raising event is $7,500.
