How can you finanicially support our debaters?
Donate to the University of Alaska Foundation Excellence in Seawolf Debate Fund! This fund was created exclusively for the Seawolf Debate Fund. Your tax-deductible donations are used to support travel opportunities for our students and help us expand our civic discourse engagement activities.
Contribute to the University of Alaska Foundation Greatland Debate Fund! This fund was created primarily to receive grants that promote our civic engagement activities.
Contribute to our Endowment Fund! The Vickie Briscoe Seawolf Debate Endowment was established in memory of our Director's mother. She was dedicated supporter of not just Shawn's involvement in the activity but all young people who wished to gain the benefits of academic, competitive debate. Your tax-deductible contributions will be invested so that generations of debaters will benefit from your contribution towards the principle balance.
Provide Scholarships! You can directly support student success at UAA by contributing to one of our two scholarship funds. Both funds were created by the friends and families of two former Seawolf Debaters who lives were cut tragically short. The Sandra Pogany Memorial Scholarship is an endowment fund that funds scholarships for UAA debaters through investment returns. The Quianna Clay Debate Scholarship provides immediate funds that can be used for scholarships to current students.
Sponsor a Tournament! Individuals, businesses, and corporations can sponsor our participation in a collegiate tournament, a middle school or high school tournament hosted by UAA, a debate camp, or other civic engagement events that we host. Whether sponsoring the team's participation in a competitive event OR sponsoring a tournament that we host for middle/high school students, you can have an impact on the growth and development of Alaska's future leaders. If you are interested in sponsoring a tournament, please reach out to seawolfdebate@gmail.com.
