Donate to the UWC Scholarship Fund to support “Nontraditional” CU Undergraduates

Your donation will support the education of CU students, aged 24 years or older, with great financial need, who have persevered through adversity to re-enroll and work toward their CU degree.

You may mark your donation as regular (no special reason),  in honor or in memory of a person, or in honor of a special occasion.

There are also ways of supporting the UWC at no extra cost to you by using special cards at Safeway and/or King Soopers grocery stores, as described below under Other Ways to Support UWC.

Regular (no special reason) Donations

Many UWC members include a donation as a regular part of paying their membership dues or attending a UWC event such as a lecture luncheon or the scholarship luncheon. Others contribute at any time by clicking the “Donate” button on the UWC website home page or the “Donate here” menu item.

Tribute Donations

You can mark your donation in memory of, or in honor of, the special people and special occasions in your life. Note that the UWC will notify a designee (you specify their name and contact on the donation form) of your donation, if you wish.

  • “In Honor” Donation: Pay tribute to a special person by donating in their name.
  • “In Memory” Donation: Honor the memory of someone special to you to celebrate their legacy.
  • “Special Occasion” Donation: Celebrate a birthday, graduation, wedding or other special milestone of your family or friends.

For more information and to see thank you stories from previous scholarship recipients, please see the Scholarships section on the UWC webpage.  You will see that these non-traditional students are much deserving of our support.

Your scholarship donations are charitable donations and are tax deductible as allowed by law.  You will receive an official letter from the UWC that acknowledges your donation for tax purposes.

King Soopers!

Last year, UWC members chose the King Soopers Community Rewards Program as their #1 choice for fundraising activities for UWC.
King Soopers donations to UWC are made directly from Loyalty Cards.  5% of all purchases will be contributed to UWC directly through your Loyalty Card, and you don’t have to do anything except use your Loyalty Card number when shopping.  This is at NO cost to you.
