About🤠

Welcome to the Pokes Center for Community Resources!

As we prepare to launch this brand-new department, we invite you to join us in making a significant impact in our community. Our mission is to support and empower students by providing essential services and connecting them with the resources they need to thrive.

The Pokes Center is dedicated to addressing the diverse needs of students through a range of services. Whether it’s helping with basic needs, supporting pregnant and parenting students, offering life skills training, or connecting individuals with additional resources, our goal is to create a nurturing environment where every student can succeed.

Your contribution to our grand opening fundraising campaign this Giving Day will play a crucial role in helping us:

  • Meet Basic Needs – From shelter and clothing to emergency assistance, we aim to ensure that no student has to choose between their education and basic needs.
  • Support Pregnant and Parenting Students – We plan to offer specialized programs and services to help students balance their educational goals with the responsibilities of parenting.
  • Develop Life Skills – Our workshops will equip students with the practical skills they need to survive.

Thank you for helping UW students!
