Support WISLI Students in Their Language Learning
We hope you consider giving the gift of language and support less commonly taught language learning at the Wisconsin Intensive Summer Language Institutes (WISLI). All donation funds will go towards student scholarships.
Donations are tax-deductible and can be made at any amount through the University of Wisconsin Foundation, the official fundraising and gift-receiving organization for the University of Wisconsin–Madison. Each year, the UW Foundation transfers gift and investment income to departments within UW–Madison. When you make a donation through the UW Foundation, you are contributing to an endowment which ensures the financial stability of the Language Program Office (LPO), the administrative unit of WISLI.
As a PhD student, money is often a barrier to what I wish to do and accomplish. While I am grateful for the stipend that I receive for my duties as a TA at my home institution, those funds are finite. This scholarship has made my study at WISLI possible and I am so thankful for this invaluable experience.
You can make a donation in one of two ways:
- Online: Donate via our secure fund link on the UW Foundation’s website at Language Program Office Fund – 112500024
- By Mail: Send the funds in by check to the “lock box” and include “International Division Language Programs Office Fund” as the fund destination on the check or with a note attached to it:
- Make check payable to: UW Foundation
- Memo or note: new International Division LPO Fund
- Mail to: UW Foundation, US Bank Lockbox 78807, Milwaukee, WI 53278-0807
If you choose to have your gift go towards a specific institute or language, please email wisli@lpo.wisc.edu. We are grateful for your generosity and support of our language programming!
The WISLI Tuition Scholarship helped remove financial barriers that would have otherwise prevented me from joining. It allowed me to commit to the program and focus on learning without the added stress of tuition costs.
