Thank you to everyone who has participated in Giving Day thus far, we couldn't have done it without you. The day isn't quite over, especially for our west coast folks, so if you haven't participated yet, there's still time to support our students. Give to the area that means the most to YOU!

About

Invest in the dreams of our students. Your support ensures that a Wilkes education remains within reach for the leaders of tomorrow.💫

Wilkes offers financial assistance to more than 90% of students to make it possible for them to attend the University and benefit from a Wilkes education. By offering this financial assistance, Wilkes is able to attract and retain a talented and diverse student body. There is no better example of generosity than the scholarships which directly reflects our collective values. It is our most transparent example of the history of our institution, our alumni and our region. We are a community that works together to better the outcome of others, more specifically to better the lives of young people who don’t ask for more than an opportunity.
