Better Together

The UW-Superior Alumni Association and UW-Superior Foundation are now the UW-Superior Alumni & Friends Foundation. By joining together, and with your support, we will continue to do great work for the benefit of the university and our amazing students and alumni. 

Fueled by the belief that we are better together, the Alumni Association and the Foundation unified on July 1, 2024, into one organization and board to strengthen our friend-raising and fundraising enterprises to parallel the aspirational success of the university. We’re honoring the past while recognizing and embracing the future together as one staff and one Board of Directors.  

Combining the important missions of lifelong pride and loyalty through alumni engagement and securing, managing, and stewarding philanthropic donations to provide extraordinary opportunities for the university and its students remain our top priorities. As the Alumni & Friends Foundation, we are excited to work with a joint purpose and shared goals.
