EWU Giving Joy Day exceeds anticipated goal

Wednesday, November 30, 2016

Thanks to the generosity of many, EWU exceeded its goal of $100,000 in scholarship support during yesterday’s Giving Joy Day. Alumni, friends, faculty and staff joined together to make this inaugural event a smashing success. Yesterday’s total philanthropic support included:

Scholarship cash gifts: $274,770
Additional cash gifts: $4,330
Additional pledges: $45,825
GIVING JOY DAY IMPACT: $324,925

It was all hands on deck for the Advancement team yesterday and the weeks leading up to the campaign. The team extends its gratitude for the partnership and creativity of the university community in support of this effort.

While many made scholarship gifts yesterday, we appreciate the many others who have given gifts in the past during our faculty/staff efforts. Please know how much this means to EWU students. For those who have not made a gift yet, there is still time! Please visit the EWU Foundation website to make your scholarship gift.
