Support Diversity & Inclusion at UW
By donating to the Office of Minority Affairs & Diversity (OMA&D), you are advancing access, equity and inclusion at the University of Washington. Gifts to our scholarships, programs, services, cultural activities and facilities ensure that underrepresented minority, first-generation and low-income students have access to higher education and support to succeed inside and beyond the classroom.
Our top funding priorities are:
wǝɫǝbʔaltxʷ – INTELLECTUAL HOUSE PHASE II – Since opening in March 2015, wǝɫǝbʔaltxʷ – Intellectual House has become a special place on campus that supports the academic pursuits of American Indian and Alaska Native students, faculty and staff, as well as serving as a welcoming space for all communities.
INSTRUCTIONAL CENTER – OMA&D’s Instructional Center users are known to experience an average 1.35 increase in GPA after their first year, and this fund will ensure that we can help thousands more attain academic excellence and persist to graduation.
EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITY PROGRAM SCHOLARSHIPS – Providing access to higher education not only changes the lives of our students, it impacts the lives of their families and communities as well. By giving to this fund, you will help open doors of opportunity for generations to come.
