CULTURE OF GIVING
"Do all the good you can,
By all the means you can,
In all the ways you can,
In all the places you can,
At all the times you can,
To all the people you can,
As long as ever you can."
— John Wesley, Letters of John Wesley (unconfirmed)
ASW’s Culture of Giving creates an enduring impact. Not only do the recipients benefit from the community’s generosity, so too do the givers. Simply put, a Culture of Giving enriches the entire community.
The immediate focus in our culture of giving initiative involves increasing our capacity to support the Ukrainian community of refugees. But beyond the Ukrainian refugees, we continue our support in efforts initiated earlier in the school. Further, we intend to expand our capacity so as to increase our service efforts to even more members of the Warsaw community.
We are, of course, all about education. Key beneficiaries of our Culture of Giving are our scholarship students. Starting in 2022 we will select up to two deserving high school students and provide them with the support and the resources to make the most of an ASW education and continue onto university.
As the Culture of Giving grows, we anticipate meeting other needs. We are committed to building a school for the future, and that means making the world our classroom.
A STROLL AROUND
Imagine joining in as the community gathers in “Downtown ASW” to enjoy the sights, sounds, smells, and tastes of an enjoyable evening out. The ASW campus will be transformed into our own special space, where event attendees will be invited into enticing nooks and crannies on campus where they can engage with the students, student projects, and others in the community who make our impactful service program possible–delightful surprises will abound. It promises to be lively, entertaining, and thoroughly enjoyable.
