Telefund

As an important part of The W’s fundraising team, student callers reach out to alumni and friends of the university to share exciting news on campus, update contact information, and encourage annual support of The W Fund.

There’s no better way to stay connected to campus than speaking with a Telefund Ambassador. It offers an opportunity for you to make a gift to The W and to talk with a student about current events at your alma mater. It's a convenient and easy way to stay in touch!

Make your W Fund pledge when a student calls!  You may designate your gift or let the University put your gift to work where it is needed the most.  You may make a secure credit card gift for quick and cost effective processing of your donation, or you may arrange to fulfill your pledge by mail.

We look forward to talking with you!
