A new University of Wisconsin-Stout Alumni Association and Stout University Foundation partnership with the Stout Ambassadors is designed to help build a culture of philanthropy on campus.
The Stout Impact Project this week started selling to students 300 unisex Carhartt-style black stocking caps with a leather “S” logo. The caps sell for $20, with the proceeds going to the Student Emergency Fund, said Jennie Smith, alumni and donor relations coordinator.
“It is a peer-to-peer fundraising project,” Smith said, noting the stocking caps came from Fleet Feet in Menomonie. The leather logo was designed by UW-Stout’s Marketing Communications.
