Previewing "One Day for UW-L" with Lauren Wanders

Over 200 groups involved in “One Day for UW-L,” and Lauren Wanders stopped in studio to help preview the 24-hour event. Wanders is the Annual Giving Coordinator at UW-L. The event begins at 9 a.m. Tuesday and runs until 9 a.m. Wednesday.  Wanders highlights some of the big matching campaigns, including $25,000 for the Adapted Physical Education program — a 40-year program that could lose its federal funding. There’s also a $1,000 match from WKTY Cares for River Watch — where students volunteer to watch over the Mississippi River area to prevent alcohol-related tragedies that result in accidental drownings. Wanders said the fundraising ranges from sports like the football and cross country teams to scholarships to academics and students organizations.
