Since 1974, the UWM Foundation has endeavored to advance the mission of the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee (UWM) through requests of philanthropic gifts to support students, faculty, campus programming and the community. As good stewards of funds designated for the University, we manage a portfolio currently valued at approximately $175 million, and distribute these funds to the University pursuant to donor wishes.
While philanthropy and asset management remain the core of our mission, the UWM Foundation constantly and increasingly pursues new, innovative avenues to support the University. In 2005, we created an affiliated organization, the UWM Real Estate Foundation (UWMREF), to develop and manage real property for the benefit of the campus and their students.
We are proud that we have not only helped to meet the need for additional student housing and more classroom space, but have done so without the infusion of tax dollars and by enhancing the local community. The UWMREF's first building, the Innovation Accelerator, opened in April of 2014.
