Hear what the Student Engagement Ambassadors have to say about the impact your generosity has on their lives at Wheaton.
On a personal note, as an alumna and current member of the Wheaton Fund team, I wanted to share why I do what I do for Wheaton. When I spend time with our student callers I reflect fondly on the calls I made to people like you. When I make my own gift to Wheaton it’s to brighten the future of the students like so many alumni, parents, and friends of the college did for me. I am forever grateful to Wheaton and all who support the college to strengthen and better our community. Thank you so much to everyone who participated in our inaugural Day of Giving.599 days ago by Isabel PongratzOur Student Engagement Ambassadors are here in Mary Lyon all day working hard to call as many of our alumni as possible.
