General Giving
Gifts to WCU's general fund—the Loyalty Fund—are arguably the most valuable to Western because they provide unrestricted resources that allow the university to allocate funds wherever the need is greatest and to take advantage of unique opportunities as they arise.
Your unrestricted contribution may be used to provide merit-based scholarships for first-year students, publication resources for Western, the magazine for alumni and friends, student achievement awards banquet, the Chancellor’s Distinguished Teaching Award, and much more.
Western relies on the annual, ongoing loyal support from alumni, parents and friends. Your Loyalty Fund contributions give Western a competitive edge and guarantee that our students receive the highest quality education possible.
