Elevate is WWIN’s signature fundraising event, bringing together community members who believe in the power of higher education to change lives.

Each year, nearly 200 community leaders, philanthropists, corporate partners, and advocates gather to support Washington women pursuing college degrees while balancing work, family responsibilities and financial pressure.

Funds raised during this special evening support WWIN’s comprehensive programs, including scholarships, emergency support, career guidance, and community connection that help women stay enrolled, navigate unexpected challenges and reach graduation.

Guests will enjoy delicious hors d’oeuvres and local beer, wine, and non-alcoholic beverages while connecting with the WWIN community. The program portion of the evening will feature:

Host a Table at Elevate 2026!

One of the most meaningful ways to participate is by hosting a table of ten guests.

Table Captains invite family, friends, colleagues, and community members to experience Elevate together while introducing new supporters to WWIN’s work. Many of WWIN’s most meaningful donor relationships begin at hosted tables.

Table Captains help:

Bring together guests who care about educational and economic opportunity
Introduce new community members to WWIN’s mission
Prepare guests for the evening’s fundraising moments
Expand the community supporting women who achieve their ambitious goals with the help of the Star Scholar Program

WWIN staff provide invitations, language, and support to make hosting simple and enjoyable.
