Honor Your Favorite Professor, Staff Person or Coach!
Make a gift to Western in honor of someone who made a big impact in your life at Western. Once you choose a donation amount and where you’d like your money to go (it’s up to you!), the person you’ve chosen to honor will receive a letter and frame-able certificate notifying him/her that a gift has been made in their honor, by you!

Western relies on the generosity of alumni to fund the extra resources and opportunities that make the Western experience great.
