With this year's open enrollment period for benefit-eligible employees upon us, the College of Western Idaho (CWI) Foundation would like to remind faculty and staff about the opportunity we all have to support students through employee giving.
Whether you choose to give to Greatest Needs, CWI Foundation scholarships, the SCORE Big Scholarship, Wishing Well Fund, a specific program, or want to create a scholarship of your own – your donations directly support student success opening doors to opportunities and the future.
Since 2011, employee giving has raised more than $184,000 in support of students and programs at the College. In 2019 alone, employee giving contributions reached nearly $25,000. Now is the perfect time to review your current giving status and payroll deductions. Not only are your donations tax deductible, they are an investment in the people, programs, and ideas that strengthen our community.
“I believe in CWI and the future of the community in which we live,” said Eric Anderson, Assistant Professor in the Automotive Technology program. “I give to CWI because I know that giving is living, and living is helping others.”
