The Ole Miss Women's Council
Invest in our Women's Council Scholars

The Ole Miss Women’s Council for Philanthropy created a scholarship program – now among the largest on campus – that has a far greater impact on students’ lives than providing them financial assistance alone.

 

By giving students access to mentors, leadership training, life skills, travel and cultural opportunities that prepare them for careers and, hopefully, a lifelong commitment to creating a caring, more ethical world, OMWC is helping produce exceptional citizens.

 

Today, you can invest in this special scholarship and mentoring program. Consider:

  • Ole Miss Women’s Council Scholars meet with career and life mentors, receiving the support they need to be successful in their studies and career trajectory.
  • The new Global Leadership Circle is composed of donors who are providing resources for OMWC Scholars to study abroad or pursue internships on national and international levels.
  • Council scholars participate in a series of leadership symposiums using the philosophy of servant leadership as the core curriculum. Recipients are expected to demonstrate their leadership training in campus-wide organizations and to serve as OMWC speakers at special events.
  • Scholars gather monthly for a Red Plate Supper, where guest speakers provide advice and guidance on life and careers in a comfortable, family-style dinner.
  • This innovative program, which awards scholarships to both males and females, is producing a strong circle of excellence, philanthropy and compassion.

 

Giving Day is the perfect time to plant a seed and watch it grow! Help the Ole Miss Women’s Council as we dream bigger, work harder and nurture more students! This is an all-hands-on-deck effort.

 

Please make a gift! Thank you!
