WestConn Parents and Family Weekend Give Back<\/strong><\/p>\n

We are encouraging families attending Parents and Family Weekend to donate to Wally\u2019s Cupboard, our on campus food pantry, to help make sure students in need have access to free and healthy food options. By making a donation, your student will be entered in a raffle to win a WCSU Bookstore book voucher for up to $500* for the upcoming spring 2025 term. There are two ways to donate. Make a monetary donation through\u00a0Wally\u2019s Cupboard Donation Form<\/a>\u00a0or you can purchase items directly from the\u00a0Amazon Wish List<\/a>.<\/i><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/i>*The book voucher is nontransferable and can only be used to purchase\/rent required textbooks available through the WCSU Bookstore. The book voucher will cover the cost of purchasing\/renting required textbooks up to $500. Please note, book vouchers count as a financial resource to the books\/supplies component of the cost of education budget and in some instances may affect or be affected by a student\u2019s financial aid offer.<\/i><\/p>\n
