Philanthropy and Institutional Support
Philanthropic support contributes meaningful resources to UW’s growth and development
through donations that enhance programs, scholarships, student enrichment, facilities,
and faculty. Support can also include gifts of equipment in addition to financial
contributions to programs of interest. By making a philanthropic contribution or sponsoring
university initiatives, your company can play a pivotal role in transforming UW’s
programs, facilities, and resources. Your support with us not only drives innovation
and excellence but also showcases your commitment to empowering education and creating
lasting impact.
Our team looks forward to recommending opportunities to build your brand awareness
on campus while deepening your connection to campus in a meaningful way.

Matching Gifts
Programs often match financial contributions to UW that are made by their employees. This corporate philanthropy initiative can significantly amplify the impact of individual donations, effectively doubling or even tripling the original contribution. Employees can confirm their company’s matching program through Double the Donation.
Faculty Support
A great example of corporate faculty support is the Occidental Chair in Energy and Environmental Technologies. It supports research excellence and scholarship at UW and furthers the development of technology that benefits both industry and Wyoming as well as the broader world.
