The Women's Scholarship Luncheon is one of the most successful fundraising events at Utah Valley University. Every year, those who attend the Women's Scholarship Luncheon generously donate to Women's Success Center scholarships in support of our students and the WSC mission. Every dollar raised at the luncheon goes directly toward student scholarships. These funds are critical for helping women stay in school and find their success.
Education is a critical component in helping a women build the life she wants. In Utah, 72% of women work. This is higher than national averages. A degree prepares a women to find meaningful work for which she is well compensated. More than a pathway to a job or financial stability, we know that women with degrees report higher levels of overall and marital happiness, have better health and that their children read at higher levels and are more prepared for school.
