Thank a Giver Day
Thank A Giver Day marks the symbolic point during the year — about 70% of the way though — when tuition dollars run out and the University relies on the generosity of donors, the endowment, and external grants for the remainder of the year. Donor support allows IWU students to continue to have experiences that make being a Titan unique. To be among those celebrated today, make a gift at www.iwu.edu/give.
For all that you do for IWU, and for any gifts that you have already given, thank you!
