Entrepreneurship & Innovation Programs
Passion-Purpose-Profession

Invest in Entrepreneurial & Innovative Student Leaders. 

Every $ matched up to 15k thanks to the generosity of David Cole.

We say entrepreneurs and innovators discover opportunities and bring people and resources together to make change happen in the world.


This Give Day we are asking for your support for our Culture of Belonging and Fellows Programs--focused on student leadership, mentorship and deep engagement. WWU's Entrepreneurship and Innovation Program is the Birthplace of Human-Centered Entrepreneurship and Innovation Education. (HCEI&E)  We focus our teaching on what the students need to grow into flourishing in whatever walks of life where they choose to act in entrepreneurial and innovative ways. 


This has been the most engaging, most impactful, inspirational, and relevant class I have ever taken at Western. THANK YOU!! 


I really appreciate the people I've met, the amazing minds I've gotten to collaborate with, and the trust from the faculty to allow us to pursue our personal passions!


Since last year, we've taken generous donor investments to take our student development to the next level.  It’s our hope to be able to support more outstanding students who are contributing to our community.
