SWE 4 Life Fiscal Year 2018 Status: $1850 out of $2500 goal Still need: ~$14,710 to meet final program goal of $25,000 for endowed scholarship. #SWE4Life #EndofYearGiving CLICK HERE to DONATE NOW! Enter in “SWE 4” in the “Instructions to Seller” or comments box, go to www.swedetroit.org and Click on the PayPal Donate Button, or mail a check to Society of Women Engineers – Detroit, PO Box 2978, Southfield, MI 48037. In less than two months, the 2018 fiscal year will be over. With the many new programs SWE Detroit is working on, this one is targeted toward SWE’s Life Members to take the lead. Our fiscal year goal is short ~$650, but we still have time to meet it and get the full matching set aside by SWE Detroit! Please don’t wait and support if you can. The SWE Detroit – SWE 4 Life endowed scholarship will be our section’s second endowed scholarship! The endowed scholarship will provide an annual $1,000 scholarship to an aspiring and deserving women pursuing engineering. If the goal is met, the first scholarship would be awarded during the 70th Anniversary of SWE Detroit! SWE D’s Life Members would like the first scholarship to be given in honor of Josie E. Rewald, one of SWE’s Life Members who passed in 2016. If you know any of the SWE Detroit Life Members, please help us communicate to them. We have found that they, like many of you, are super busy and can miss the posts and emails. Some don’t even have an email. So if you see them at work or outside, please tell them what you have read on the blog. Not a Life Member? No problem, anyone can donate to the fund (some have already). Every little bit helps, so we encourage you to donate if you can. Your donation is tax deductible. The program will be tracked separately from the Member Solicitation Program and have its own levels: Diamond $ 1000 + Sapphire $ 500 to $ 999 Emerald $ 250 to $ 499 Quartz $ 50 to $ 249 Contributions will be tracked yearly and the level will be determined based on accumulated contributions received by SWE Detroit. To donate online to any of our programs, go to www.swedetroit.org and look for the Donate Button on the site for Paypal. After you submit your information and input your donation amount, you will have the opportunity to designate your donation. Please input in the text field to allow it to be allocated appropriately: “SWE 4 Life Endowed Scholarship or Life Members Endowed Scholarship”, “Josie E. Rewald Memorial Scholarship”, “Teacher/Mentor Award”, specify another program, or the general fund.
