WGU Giving Day: Night Owls Unite
Today, April 16 is WGU Giving Day! Employees, alumni, donors across the country unite to support our students.

What is WGU Giving Day?
To make this day even more impactful, we're implementing a matching campaign where every new or upgraded payroll deduction gift made by an employee will be matched with $100 by our WGU leadership team!
The Impact of Scholarships
It was a blessing to be chosen for a scholarship during my last term. I majored in elementary education and just accepted my first teaching position as a middle school special education teacher. I am truly grateful for the scholarship support. This scholarship allowed me to work less hours and focus on my studies and additional educational opportunities. Thank you for your support of WGU students. Amelia K.
What is the goal?
To date, employees have raised more than $350,000 and
supported more than 400+ students like Amelia.
Here's how you can participate:
Make a Gift: Consider a payroll deduction of $19.97 (the year of WGU’s founding!) a month or $9.98 a paycheck. Every new or upgraded payroll deduction donor will be matched with $100 by the WGU leadership team and maximizes your impact! Or give through Motivosity!
Spread the Word: Share this initiative
with your colleagues and encourage them to participate. The more employees who
join in, the greater our collective impact will be. Use #GoOWLin on your social
media channels.
Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives
of our students and demonstrate the generosity and compassion that defines
WGU’s culture.
