The UW School of Environmental and Forest Sciences is proud to announce the establishment of a new Diversity, Equity & Inclusion Endowed Fund, with generous support from an anonymous donor.

This endowed program support fund was created to support our efforts in SEFS that advance our goals related to diversity, equity & inclusion (DEI). This fund will be used to support such efforts as student participation in activities, academic programming, public events, trainings and curricular innovations.

The SEFS DEI Committee, which led the development of the School’s DEI plan, will provide input on spending from the endowment.

SEFS aims to grow the fund and the support it provides to our aspirations, and we invite you to join us! Please consider donating to the fund and supporting our efforts to make our School and the professions and disciplines we serve more diverse, equitable, and inclusive places.
