Happy New Year!
Help Puerto Rican Students Continue their Education at VWU
Hurricane Maria's devastation in Puerto Rico has forced many higher education institutions to remain closed this academic year. Therefore, Virginia Wesleyan University and the Hampton Roads Hispanic community are partnering to bring up to 5 students from the University of Puerto Rico at Humacao to VWU for the spring 2018 semester. If you want to help in our fundraising efforts to make VWU a reality for 5 students, donate now . B e sure to designate your gift to Annual Scholarships and put "Puerto Rico" in the comments section. 

Yes! I want to help bring students from Puerto Rico to VWU  for the spring 2018 semester.
