A new way to experience the UW
Your philanthropic support for the Ana Mari Cauce Welcome Center shapes a simple promise to everyone who arrives at the University of Washington — you belong here.
Thanks to the generous support of donors, the Welcome Center will serve as a place of connection, discovery and belonging for generations to come.
Maximize your support
As of 2026, the University of Washington is the only university in the Big Ten that doesn’t have a dedicated Welcome Center or Alumni Center.
That’s about to change.
We invite you to join the growing list of committed Welcome Center supporters.
In addition to online gifts, you can make an even greater impact with a multi-year gift. Contact Sarah Boon to learn about multi-year giving and recognition.
A home for every Husky
Your support for the Ana Mari Cauce Welcome Center can help create the University’s first true front door — a single place where anyone can begin their UW story.
Please reach out to us at welcomecenter@uw.edu to explore how you or your organization can support this transformative project.
