The UWAA Life Member Service Award is a symbol of unwavering dedication and enduring impact on UW and its alums. This year, the award finds its rightful place with Mark Mader, a ’71 graduate in business administration and pillar in the UW community whose financial acumen and leadership have enriched the experience for all who call our university home.
When reflecting on how he got involved with the UWAA, Mader says, “I actually wasn’t that involved with the Alumni Association until my son got involved. That got me really interested, and then I got on the board, and I’ve been real involved since then.”
Mader’s journey from board member to board president brought about key changes that significantly improved the financial landscape of the UWAA. With a sharp eye for financial management and the ability to bring people together, Mader did more than just crunch numbers — he laid the foundation for a secure and prosperous future for the UWAA.
Mader’s story exemplifies the UWAA Life Member Service Award. Individuals such as Mader are the force that drives the UW community forward, and that is why we are proud to honor him as the recipient of this year’s award.
