Since 1901, scholarships to UNL students have been a key component of the UNL Women’s Club. Scholarship funds come from general donations, memorial and honorary donations, and fundraising activities. Scholarships are based on academic achievement, financial need, extracurricular and community volunteer activities. The University of Nebraska Foundation manages an endowed scholarship fund for the Women’s Club.
It was inspiring to hear our 2025-2026 UNL Women’s Club Scholarship recipients share their stories conveying the impact members' donations had on their education. The generosity of UNLWC members in 2025-2026 resulted in donations totaling $15,316. This total included $6,000 from an incredible anonymous donor match challenge. You contributed $3,000 and our donor matched with an additional $3,000.
A new opportunity to donate to the UNLWC Scholarship Fund will be available through the mail included with your UNLWC membership renewal form. A donation of any amount is welcome and added together with others makes a difference larger than the sum. In our 132nd year, let’s carry on this spirit of giving, assuring our mission of support to UNL students into the future!
