About

Today is Nebraska Wesleyan University's seventh annual Giving Day! 

Giving Day is a chance for community members, near and far, to support the exceptional foundation and endless possibilities an NWU education provides. Your Archway Fund gift makes the NWU experience possible!

All Archway Fund gifts are used within the same academic year. Your gift today has an immediate impact on current students. 

Thanks to generous alumni and corporate sponsors, today only, every gift is matched. Give now and double your impact!

Giving Day gifts are made up of all sizes. We do so much with what we have - imagine what more we could accomplish together!

Cheers to the Class of 2023!

In celebration of the soon-to-be alumni, Pinnacle Bank has added $7,500 to our total today. 

Right now, members of the 2023 graduating class are being welcomed into the NWU Alumni Association at an event in downtown Lincoln. Because of the strong foundation these soon-to-be-graduates have built through their NWU experience, they are prepared for so many possibilities.

Thank you for making it all possible with your Archway Fund support!

Thank you, Greg, for your commitment to every NWU student and for inspiring your fellow alumni to join you in supporting your alma mater!
