UMW offers over 140 clubs and organizations – focused on service, civic engagement, academics, arts, sports, identity, hobbies, and more – where students can get involved and find their “community” on campus.
In October we’re raising funds to support UMW clubs and organizations. The below student-run clubs chose to participate in this year's EAGLEfunding campaign. Whether you have a connection to one of these groups or it just happens to align with your own passions, we hope you’ll invest in our students and expand their Mary Washington experience.
The club with the highest number of gifts (counted in donors, not dollars) will receive an extra $1,000! The club with the second-highest gift count will receive $500, and the third-highest will receive $250. Thank you to Patti Boise Kemp ’69 for generously sponsoring these bonus gifts.
