WID100

The Wisconsin Institute for Discovery (WID) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison is an internationally renowned center for trail-blazing interdisciplinary research. In addition to its prowess in research, WID excels in the fusion of science and art as well as public outreach. We intend to provide opportunities for a broad community to experience the inspiring research and public engagement at WID firsthand.

With that goal in mind, we are excited to announce the formation of the WID100, an instrumental group of 100 community, business, and scientific leaders who donate $1,000 to WID. In the future, there will be annual WID100 groups based on gifts received in that year. However, by joining now, you become a permanent WID100 Charter Member and as such, you will be uniquely recognized to the WID community and beyond.

The WID100 will support WID’s innovative, cutting-edge science such as the Top Ten Recent WID Discoveries, as well as our experiments to identify practices that enable and amplify interdisciplinary research. As a WID100 Charter Member, you will have opportunities to engage with WID faculty in discussions of their work and on tours of WID labs. You will also be invited to participate in special events and celebrations.

Become a WID100 Charter Member by donating $1,000 today. Membership includes:

• A WID100 Charter Member pin, unique only to the first 100;
• Invitations to the WID 10th Anniversary Gala and annual WID100 Breakfast;
• Access to small group discussions and tours with the WID Director and Faculty;
• Regular updates, including video blogs, sent only to the WID100 – you’ll hear updates on how your support directly impacts WID’s work to advance interdisciplinary science.

Become a WID100 Charter Member today. With your support we can do the innovative science others can’t. Your contribution today will help drive the science of tomorrow. For questions about gift options or to learn more about becoming a supporter of WID, please contact Andrew Hanus.
