You care deeply about rural Wisconsin – its traditions, its people, and its future. The rolling landscapes, the strong sense of community, and the helping hands that define rural life hold a special place in your heart.
Because of your passion for preserving and strengthening these traditions for future generations, I invite you to become a
Rural Guardian
– a valued supporter of the Wisconsin Rural Opportunities Foundation (WROF), Inc.
What is a Rural Guardian?
A Rural Guardian is someone who believes in the power of education to shape the future of rural Wisconsin. Every gift, no matter the size, joins you with a community of like-minded individuals who are committed to keeping rural traditions alive and thriving – not just here in Wisconsin but everywhere.
Your Support Makes a Lasting Impact
You can become a Rural Guardian with a
one-time gift
or by choosing
monthly giving
, which helps WROF, Inc. plan for new scholarship opportunities and expand awards to our 30+ educational partners across Wisconsin. Monthly gifts provide steady support, ensuring more students have the opportunity to pursue careers that will keep our rural communities strong.
I know firsthand the difference WROF, Inc. scholarships make. Back in 1980, the WROF, Inc. scholarship I received allowed me to work fewer hours, focus more on my studies, and participate in clubs and activities that shaped my leadership skills – skills I’ve carried with me throughout my life.
Please consider joining me today
as a Rural Guardian. Your support is an investment in the bright future of rural Wisconsin and the generations to come.
Thank you for being part of this mission and for everything you do to keep rural Wisconsin strong.
