SUPPORTING THE DREAMS OF A NEW GENERATION FIRST-GENERATION SCHOLARSHIP FUND Western’s commitment to creating a vibrant academic community with access to toptier faculty and personalized learning opportunities is at the very core of who we are and uniquely positions us to provide a pathway for first-generation students who want to change the trajectory of their family tree and earn a university diploma.
ELEVATE WESTERN will enable Western to alleviate the financial burden on firstgeneration students and their families, including those from minority and historically underrepresented populations. Campaign investments will allow us to establish the FIRST-GENERATION SCHOLARSHIP FUND to support tuition costs for qualified first-generation students.
