Alumni Giving Campaign
UWC ISAK Japan is calling its alumni to contribute to its ‘Celebrate & Sustain’ campaign. Contributions, regardless of size, are significant gifts, reflecting a positive impact on alumni, encouraging other donors, and supporting the shared mission of uniting changemakers for a sustainable, peaceful future. The campaign looks forward to welcoming alumni into its community of givers.
Milestones to 1 Million JPY
To give our alumni just a little more motivation (not that it is needed), we will be releasing rewards to the alumni community each time we hit a funding milestone from alumni donations. Let’s make sure to unlock them all before August 2024!

Why Alumni Give
UWC ISAK Japan Alumni have shared their reasons for contributing. Find out why they believe in giving back to the community that shaped them.
“Coming to ISAK has undoubtedly changed my life and I learned a lot about who I am and more importantly, about who I want to be. I’ve made some comrades for life here in ISAK. One of my key memories was being invited to a barbecue at a donor’s house and I remember it being a surreal experience. We had a great time but I remember very clearly that one of my classmates had said to this donor that we, as alumni, would one day be able to give back more than him. I just checked and this donor is a billionaire. This small monthly donation is just a first small step in that direction. 塵も積もれば山となる”
“This community has had a large impact on who I am now, what I want to do in life, and what kind of person I want to be. A financial donation is just one form of paying forward alongside other opportunities such as helping out with summer/winter school, applications and guest speakers. The amount doesn’t matter for all of these, but rather the act itself is a way to show our support, stay connected, and builds the foundation of the community that we all grew from.”
“As an alumni, I believe it’s important to give back to the institution that helped shape who I am today. Donating to ISAK not only supports current students and faculty, but also helps pave the way for future generations to have the same opportunities for growth and success that I had. I encourage all alumni to consider making a donation, no matter how small, to support ISAK’s continued success.”
Remember, your contribution as an alumni is a testament to the value and impact of our shared UWC ISAK experience. Let’s work together to sustain the opportunity for future generations.
