An alumna from the Class of 1959 recently made a $1 million campaign gift to fund her third Alvey Scholarship at the University of Mary Washington. These comprehensive Alvey Scholarships for out-of-state students are instrumental in helping UMW attract top students from across the country.
In addition to her generous Mary Washington First Campaign gift for the new Alvey Scholarship, this alumna also added $50,000 to existing endowments for student fellowships in natural and physical sciences.
The $50-million Mary Washington First Campaign began July 1, 2011, and went public April 26, 2014. The Campaign is scheduled to conclude June 30, 2016. Visit umw.edu/marywashingtonfirst or call 540-654-1024 for more information.
