忠诚

In 2018, a group of women came together with a vision: to give intentionally and collaboratively to create a greater impact on students at 韦德体育app官网. The giving group created from this vision has been able to fund projects that will impact the OU community for years to come. 也, most group events are hybrid (in-person and virtual) which means members from across the country can take part in selecting projects that have meaningful impact.

Share your interest and get more information on this amazing group of women by filling out an interest form.
