making a difference in the world:
Stories of your gifts' ripple effect
Donna Bailey: Finding a Way To Funds - Anna Custer: Becoming Part of the Change
- Jennifer Davis Ward: Expanding Her Students' Horizons
- Priyanka Deo: Taking a Stand for Justice
- Howard Kang: Learning What Community Looks Like
- Shana Stine: Investing Her Heart in Kenya
Many would see Making a Difference in the World as the END product of education.
At UIS, we hope--and help--our students make a difference right now.
Yes, some of the stories below feature UIS/SSU alumni and the positive difference they are making once they have left us. But most students come to us already having made a difference in the world, and we see our role as nurturing that commitment to making the world a better place.
And if when they leave us they continue making a chance--well, we will be happy to claim having had a role in their lives!
