60% of Students Need Help—You Can Change That

As supporters of UW-Green Bay, your generosity has already made a lasting impact on our students. By funding scholarships, academic programs, and university projects, you inspire learners to overcome obstacles and rise higher than ever before.

Take Yaquelin for example. As a first-generation student, she started thinking about how she could achieve her college dream when she was 15. She wanted to make her parents proud, but didn’t want to burden them with the cost of higher education.

So, she applied for UW-Green Bay’s Rising Phoenix program and finished her associate’s degree for free while in high school. Now, she’s set to graduate from UW-Green Bay debt-free in just two years thanks to financial aid and scholarship funding.

“I always worried about debt,” she said, “and now I get to focus more on my studies and not on how to pay, which is like, the best thing ever.”

Think about that impact for a moment. Because of her hard work, Yaquelin will be the first in her family to graduate college. Because of donors like you, she will do so without weighing her family down with debt.

Today, we invite you to continue your legacy of giving by supporting student scholarships. Every gift, no matter the size, reduces obstacles and drives success at UW-Green Bay. Though our university is among the most affordable in the Universities of Wisconsin, any cost can create a barrier to education.

60% of our learners have demonstrated financial need. Only 10% receive scholarships. Your support can make up the difference.

Thank you for believing in our students and for making education accessible to all. Together, we can ensure more success stories like Yaquelin’s.
