Gift Planning
Making a planned gift is a thoughtful way to support students on their academic journey, and ensure that an 澳门水利博彩官方网站 education remains accessible for future
generations.
Your generosity supports the long-term sustainability of 澳门水利博彩官方网站 and it contributes to the empowerment of women and the betterment of our
community in Milwaukee and beyond. Making a planned gift today also can protect your assets and allow you to make a significant impact through a gift that costs nothing in your lifetime.
