A HUGE thank you to all faculty and staff who participated in the Heart of BW Campaign this year. We are overwhelmed by the generosity of the BW campus and the impact that we make when we all come together. We are pleased to report that as of today, faculty and staff participation has reached 71%!
We want to extend a special THANK YOU to our Captains across campus who have helped spread the word about this campaign and have been a resource by answering questions and sharing updates. Without their commitment and support, we would not be able to reach this level of success.
The 2017 Captains include: Rob Becker, Tom Bobeck, Bryan Bowser, Ann Conrad, John DiGennaro, Greg Flanik, Robin Gagnow, Chungsim Han, Lacey Kogelnik, Amy Lebo, Maureen Loudin, James McCargar, Karen Munroe, George Schiller, Adam Sheldon, Steve Stahl, Margaret Stiner, Tom Sutton, Ashley Terrago, Colleen Visconti, Tim Washington and Cheryl Willard

If you haven't participated yet, there is still time! All gifts made by the end of our fiscal year, June 30, will be counted in this year's participation rate. It’s important that we strive in continuing to grow our percentage to not only showcase institutional pride, but help influence major donors, foundations and corporations to also invest in BW.
Remember, there are several ways to make a gift:
- Payroll deduction allows you to spread your gift out over a period of time and is one of the easiest ways to make a sustaining gift to the university.
- Make a gift online using our secure giving page.
- Direct a cash or check gift to the annual giving office (located in the Alumni House) via campus mail.
- Jacket Express gifts are also an option! Call our office at 440-826-2135 to process this type of gift.
THANK YOU for all that you do for our students, alumni and community. Your time, efforts and talents are what continue to make BW a great place to learn, experience and grow.
If you have any questions about giving at BW, please reach out to the annual giving office at 440-826-2135 or bwannual@bw.edu.
