Bridge to Success scholarships supported students in need during COVID-19 crisis

August 11, 2021

Impact 2030 provided funds so virtually all of our students were able to stay enrolled and on track with their academic programs during the pandemic. In partnership with UW–Madison’s Office of Student Financial Aid, we developed and launched the School of Education Bridge to Success scholarship program, which was made possible in part by a generous estate gift from Glen and Janet Lillegren Gustafson and the Impact 2030 Morgridge Match.
