Help us meet our goal

The primary initiative of our celebration year is to raise $25,000 to fully fund an endowed social work student scholarship. Whether it is $10 or a thousand, every contribution gets us closer to making this scholarship a reality. Incentive items with the anniversary logo are available.

Learn about and support our giving campaign at wiu.edu/socialwork25.

We are proud of the programs successes and know that our future is a bright one. Your contributions, past, present, and future are greatly appreciated.
