This year, we discovered ways to stay engaged virtually, leveraging technology to connect with Wildcats through the Alumni Association Webinars Series [4], virtual events, townhalls with the deans, the President’s Reception for donors, sharing thank-you videos from students [8], and even a virtual tour of the new Health Sciences Facility [9]. (with the CWU Retirement Association). We continued the tradition of recognizing standout alumni and donor, like awarding Ret. General James N. Mattis with an honorary degree [7], and holding the 2021 Distinguished Alumni Awards [6] and Wildcat Athletic Association Hall of Fame virtually. You, our donors, helped us meet our fundraising goals to net the third-best year for CWU. This included $1.5 million from the late Wilma Bowers Stellingwerf to enable the library to update its facilities and enhance its education and research resources [5], $400,000 from Roy and Isabel Tullis to support the CWU Brooks Library [2], and $50,000 from James (Jim) Andersen to create the James L. Andersen Endowed Scholarship to support College of Business students [10]. The CWU Foundation continued the Washington State Opportunities Scholarship (WSOS) partnership, receiving over $200k in scholarships for WA students [1]. Through outreach such as digital marketing, we kept in touch with our constituents and campaign efforts resulted in over 245,000 impressions to help improve reach and engagement [3].
