When Seahawks need support, flexibility matters. Gifts to UNCW’s areas of greatest need provide the capacity to respond in real time — ensuring students don’t miss out on meaningful opportunities because of timing, cost or circumstance.
The UNCW Fund
The UNCW Fund helps students say yes to experiences beyond the classroom — from undergraduate research and internships to global travel. Recent support has sent students to the Kennedy Space Center and to India, expanding perspectives and opening doors. When timing matters, the UNCW Fund makes possibilities real.
University Need‑Based Scholarships
Many UNCW students rely on financial aid to pursue their education, yet unmet financial need remains a challenge for too many. Need‑based scholarships help ensure students aren’t forced to choose between affordability and opportunity — providing stability, access and the support students need to succeed.
Parent Opportunity Fund
Gifts to the Parent Opportunity Fund create programs that help students find a sense of belonging, establish lifelong healthy habits and develop leadership skills — while keeping them safe, engaged and supported outside the classroom.
Together, we raised over $2.1M for UNCW and our Seahawks. Because of you, there’s an ocean of opportunities ahead.
The 24 hours of this year's Seahawks Give may be over, but the impact of your generosity is just beginning. Stay tuned for more details on how this collective effort will provide scholarships, fuel groundbreaking research, enhance the student experience and champion Seahawk athletics.
