Annual support to PennWest Edinboro helps students to succeed in classrooms, in labs, on stage, on playing fields and in our communities. Annual support influences every aspect of the Edinboro experience and is critical to help fund their greatest needs. 

Give Now

Our students today are very much like our students in years past. They excel in their courses, as members of a club or organization, in their internships or student teaching and athletically. They are just like our alumni were when they walked through campus.  

Your generosity helps us recruit a talented student body, provide program and athletics support and retain the best and brightest faculty. 

Gifts to PennWest Edinboro includes direct support to: 

  • Student scholarships 
  • Program enhancement 
  • Sports programs and student clubs 
  • Art shows and theatre productions 

Annual Support through recurring, sustainable contributions is a significant part of the foundation on which our success is based. Your support allows PennWest Edinboro to provide opportunities for students to pursue their dream of higher education and lead fulfilling lives through meaningful employment as contributing members of our community.
