Sustained Giving

A sustaining gift of any size provides unrestricted funds to support initiatives that are not supported through university funding. Gifts from $25 to $3,000 are an investment in the WVUteach program and future STEM educators. A monthly, quarterly, or yearly gift – no matter the size – can have a big impact on WVUteach students, mentor teachers, and K-12 students.
