Giving Tuesday
The Power of Giving:
Giving Tuesday is a global day of giving celebrated each year on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving. This worldwide movement encourages individuals and communities to come together, celebrate generosity, and make a meaningful impact through charitable giving.
At the Western New Mexico University Foundation, we believe every gift has the power to make a difference. This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to invest in the future of WNMU by supporting the people, programs, and opportunities that matter most to you.
Whether your passion is student scholarships, athletics, academics, campus initiatives, or an area close to your heart, your generosity helps strengthen our university and create opportunities for generations to come.
Join us this Giving Tuesday and make a gift to the area of WNMU that inspires you*.
*All gifts process through our partner, Blackbaud Merchant Services. You will be redirected to their online giving forms at the time of your donation.
