The USM Fund Willie Cup trophy is now on display outside of the Middle School office at University School of Milwaukee. The trophy, which was partially created in the Lubar Center for Innovation and Exploration, recognizes the grade level and division with the highest percentage of participation in giving to the USM Fund during the Family Participation Drive each spring. Last year, Middle School won the distinction with 64% of school families supporting the USM Fund.
Thanks to a generous alumnus from USM’s Class of 1999, all gifts to the USM Fund made between Sept. 26 and Oct. 3 will be MATCHED DOLLAR FOR DOLLAR, up to $10,000! This special gift match opportunity ends at midnight on Friday, Oct. 3, our annual Blue and Gold Giving Day. Learn more and make your gift here.
The USM Fund supports virtually every area of USM life—like technology, faculty and staff professional development, athletics, arts, tuition assistance, special programming, and facilities maintenance.
