Our mission is to be the College’s partner in securing and providing various resources to support and promote education and workforce development throughout the communities we serve.
Every donation is greatly appreciated and no amount is too small.
What We Do
The WSU Tech Foundation helps change the lives of students through scholarships and emergency loans thanks to generous private gifts, community contributions and employee support.
Your Gift In Action
It’s no secret that students pursuing higher education face mounting financial challenges. During a typical year, the Foundation and College provide financial support and scholarships to more than 150 WSU Tech students.
Your gifts give students the opportunity to gain the education and experience to fill the talent pipeline in our community. Every gift makes a world of difference in the life of a WSU Tech student.
The Wichita Promise is a scholarship program that pays tuition and fees for specific high-wage, high-demand jobs. But more than that, the program offers personal career advising by WSU Tech’s Career Services department and a GUARANTEED interview upon completion.
