UW–Madison alumni and supporters have a history of pushing boundaries, achieving great heights, and giving back. The Wisconsin Alumni Association’s awards program annually recognizes alumni and supporters who exemplify the Wisconsin Idea, enhancing the positive influence of the university on campus as well as beyond its borders. This toolkit is designed to help you communicate information about Wisconsin Alumni Association (WAA) award recipients to your audiences.

The 2023 recipients will be recognized throughout the year and into the spring of 2024 at various alumni and supporter events.

Launched in 2020, the Raimey-Noland Campaign is an effort to bring more perspectives to UW–Madison and create a greater sense of belonging in the campus community.

Named for the UW’s first known female and male Black graduates, the Raimey-Noland Campaign aims to inspire a new era of giving and honor the past. Diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging are top priorities at every level and within every program at UW–Madison — and the Wisconsin Foundation and Alumni Association and campus partners want to work with donors and friends who can provide resources to support these efforts.

Part of the need for the campaign is to emphasize that all parts of campus are committed to creating a more inclusive environment and are working together to accomplish that goal. You can be a part of this effort by infusing Raimey-Noland Campaign language throughout your diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging (DEIB) communications to all audiences and using it to highlight and promote your own DEIB work. The campaign also features the Raimey-Noland Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging Fund within the Office of the Chancellor.
