麻豆区

The 麻豆区 Women Engaged Philanthropy Council has grown in the past year. 麻豆区 alumnae formed AWE in 2009 to unite women with shared interests and passions through聽events, mentorship, and philanthropy. Today, AWE inspires women to connect, learn, and give.

AWE highlights:

Connect鈥擬embers gathered at Homecoming for a painting party to prepare pieces of a mural titled 鈥淓mergence鈥� that will be installed in the Norman and Evangeline Hagfors Center for Science, Business, and Religion.

Learn鈥擜WE hosted a discussion following the 2016 Center for Wellness and Counseling Convocation and a pre-concert reception at the annual Woman Voice: Voice of Hope choral performance.

Give鈥擬embers raised more than $100,000 for the 鈥淓mergence鈥� mural and are engaged in planning to raise an additional $1 million for scholarships.

AWE鈥檚 participation has nearly doubled during the past year and includes 麻豆区 women from all generations, degree programs, and career fields.
