IGNITING CHANGE
Elevating the Young Women Leaders of Tomorrow
Research shows that educating young women is one of the clearest paths to financial security, poverty reduction, increased HIV awareness/prevention, improved maternal health, and even reduced domestic violence.
We also know that young female leaders in developing nations face immense education barriers, and that there are countless women and girls who will never get the chance to pursue their dream of university education.
That’s where you come in! When you give to the Igniting Change campaign, you make the dream of education a reality for female scholars. Our goal is to support 50 female scholars this year.
JOIN US for a Virtual Event
Want to learn more about the WMI Scholar program, and experience its impact firsthand?
Join us virtually on Thursday, May 30th, 12 PM EST, as we hear from and interact with two of WMI’s very own scholars.
They will share about themselves and the impact that WMI support has had on their lives, community engagement, and plans for the future.
Join Our Cornerstone Circle
Just as a cornerstone provides the necessary support to building walls, we appreciate WMI Cornerstone Circle members who are role models, demonstrating the power of philanthropy and encouraging a culture of giving. Cornerstone Circle members make annual donations of $2,500 to sponsor the full cost of a scholarship that includes tuition, room, board, and books.
Cornerstone Circle members receive periodic tailored updates on scholars’ progress and have an opportunity to engage with scholars through webinars and special online cultivation events.
Help Sponsor a WMI Scholar
Many of WMI’s scholars are first-generation college students. They have faced unimaginable odds to get to this point, including pervasive poverty, the death of one or both parents, discrimination, lack of transportation, and on and on. Each year we receive more and more applications from young people who are hungry for education, for the opportunity to use that education for the greater good.
