You can make change happen, too, as a member of the Penn State York Women’s Philanthropic Network (WPN). Welcoming both established donors and new donors making their first gift, the WPN brings women together, both face-to-face and with technology, to unite their financial power in a collective voice—to create, nurture, and transform Penn State York through philanthropy and encourage the development of women as philanthropic leaders.</p><h3>Learn</h3><p>Each year, the Penn State York chancellor presents the WPN with requests from the campus community that address needs as basic as scholarship sup-port for students and as diverse as funding for academic programs, athletics, student life activities, and community outreach endeavors. The WPN considers those initiatives that meet both the mission and the strategic imperatives established by the campus leadership team. Grant applications are accompanied by two-minute videos for members to hear directly from the applicant how the WPN can positively impact their program or project. Applicants and past recipients, including students associated with the programs or projects funded, are invited to WPN events to provide members with information and the opportunity to ask questions. </p><h3>Engage</h3><p>You can engage with the funding process through conversations with the chancellor, each other, and the campus community representatives requesting grants. Special WPN committees provide additional engagement experiences. One such committee is the Pennsylvania Women’s Conference Selection Committee. You will be introduced to students applying to become part of a select group that attend this professional conference in Philadelphia and are awarded junior WPN memberships. Our members also enjoy opportunities to become mentors—with their fellow WPN members and Penn State York students.</p><h3>Give</h3><p>Members are required to make annual gifts of cash (checks, credit cards, appreciated securities) that are directed to the priorities and goals established for the WPN. A portion of your donation may be utilized to support and sustain the activities of the WPN. If your employer has a matching gift policy, those matching gifts count toward your membership level for the year. The following link is provided on the WPN page on the Penn State York website to facilitate electronic giving.</p><p><a href="http://givenow.psu.edu/YorkWPN"><strong>Give to the WPN Online</strong></a></p><h3>Network</h3><p>As a WPN member, you can become engaged in networking activities at whatever level you desire. Our focus is on providing opportunities to net-work, learn, and have fun together.
