"Ever since WILS, I have come out of my shell and made my own path.
I don't care if people think I'm goofy, I'm me and that's all that matters. "
–Adam Z., WILS 2010
- Sponsor a Student. Since WILS is free of charge to all ambassadors and schools, sponsorships are one of the main ways students have the ability to experience the seminar. The cost to sponsor a student to attend WILS for three days is $200. Our sponsorship booklet has more details, or you can donate online here. If you'd like to donate by check, you can mail it to: WILS, P.O. Box 237, Milwaukee, WI 53201-0237.
- Help With Fundraisers. We have several fundraisers each year for which proceeds go directly towards seminar sponsorships.
- Calendar Raffle. Contact us at info@wils.us if you're interested in buying a calendar raffle ticket. We limit the raffle to 300 tickets and you have a chance to win up to $1,000 throughout the year through our monthly drawings. Tickets are 1 for $20 or 3 for $50 and we sell them until they're gone, even after the drawings start in October!
- Annual Wine Tasting Event. In early 2011 we will host our second annual wine tasting event. By purchasing a ticket to attend and participating in our raffle at the event, you help us raise several sponsorships for WILS ambassadors! We will post more information as it becomes available.
- Plan Your Own Fundraiser! If you're interested in planning your own fundraiser, contact us at fundraising@wils.us and we will get you in touch with someone who can help!
- Donate Supplies. There are many items and services needed to put on our seminar, including mailing supplies, T-shirts, postage, program books and other printing costs, transportation and meals. You can help by underwriting these expenses or directly donating the services or supplies. Our sponsorship booklet has more details.
- Roundy's We Care Program. If you have a Roundy's card, a portion of your purchases can benefit WILS. Go to the customer service desk and ask to have Wisconsin Leadership Seminars, Inc. added to your card as a We Care charity. Even if you already have a charity on your card, you can benefit up to three organizations, so please add WILS if you have a card! Roundy's stores include Pick N' Save and Copp's, among others.
- GoodSearch and GoodShop. If you use GoodSearch (powered by Yahoo) as your search engine, WILS receives a penny for every search. If you shop online through GoodShop, WILS receives a percentage of every purchase generated from a GoodShop link.
- Volunteer. All of our seminar staff, speakers and panelists are unpaid volunteers. If you are interested in volunteering at WILS, please contact Christina at seminarchair@wils.us.
