On this #GivingTuesday, we invite you to be a part of something truly transformative.
The global generosity movement that takes place annually on the Tuesday after Thanksgiving, commonly know as “Giving Tuesday,” serves as the kickoff to the holiday season and an opportunity to show our gratitude by giving back to our community. As you’re thinking about which causes to support, we hope you’ll consider Wheaton!
Students come to Wheaton to pursue their passions, dreams and aspirations–to grow! Thanks to your support, Wheaton students receive the tools and mentorship that empowers them to not just dream but to act.
When you give to Wheaton, you're not just making a one-time contribution. You are investing in access, opportunity, and growth that touches lives and transforms our community.
Your generosity provides fuel for growth so all those who seek a purposeful and abundant life, can do so at Wheaton College 💙
This #GivingTuesday, support the Fund for Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging, and you will help support various workshops, events, and programs focused on global citizenship and social justice issues, like Wheaton's "Elephant in the Room Talks."
The "Elephant in the Room Talks" series is a part of Abundant Dialogues, aimed at bridging complex conversations, and is sponsored by the Office for Institutional Equity and Belonging in consultation with DEAL.
The Abundant Dialogues series aims to nurture a culture of open exploration amidst difficult conversations to support student success. This initiative seeks to:
(1) Support student curiosity by creating a brave space for engaging with challenging topics.
(2) Expand and co-produce knowledge through respectful discourse and shared inquiry.
(3) Equip our community with the skills essential for constructive dialogues, fostering a tradition of understanding and mutual growth.
Your annual support empowers individuals to delve into complex conversations with open minds, contributing to a more prosperous, more abundant life within and beyond our academic community.
530 days ago by Patty GrundyWhen you support the Campus Life Fund & Friends of Arts with a donation this #GivingTuesday you help bring magic, joy, and beauty to the Wheaton College campus for annual events, like Winter Fest!
This special event which is co-sponsored by the Office of the President and Arts at Wheaton was initiated last year as a new way to create connection, showcase the amazing artistic talents of Wheaton students, and give back during the season of giving!
Picture this 📷 ice sculptures, sweet treats, student musical performances, the dimple aglow in luminaria and white lights...topped with community service opportunities to support Wheaton's Food Pantry and Norton Cupboard of Kindness.
Your annual support provides the opportunity for our community to come together and celebrate the milestone of another amazing Fall Semester coming to a close. After the intensity of the semester, it’s important to pause, reflect on all that has been accomplished, and to enjoy each other and the beauty of the Dimple ❄️
