Alumni Make ‘Day of the Badger’ a Success
UW alumni showed their support in a big way on the inaugural Day of the Badger in 2019. During this special university-wide campaign, Badgers everywhere celebrated WSB and UW–Madison by making a donation, wearing red, and staying connected.
Thanks to the generosity of donors and friends, WSB raised more than $320,000 to the WSB Scholarship Fund. Two generous match donors, Bruce Ellig (BBA ’59, MBA ’60) and Barry Gerhart (PhD ’85), doubled the impact of gifts by pledging a $150,000 match.
