To further the vision of UWA becoming one of the top 50 Universities in the world by 2050, we need your support.
Achievements
The generosity of donors to UWA began with the original bequest from Sir Winthrop Hackett, which established the University in 1911, and continues with the creation of the Hackett Foundation in 1998.
Since then, friends and alumni have donated to the University in the form of scholarships, works of art, contributions for buildings and support for ground-breaking research. This generosity has made UWA the top university in Western Australia, and one with national and international renown.
As well, the study of Italian language and culture is flourishing in many Australian tertiary institutions, thanks to the Cassamarca Foundation and its extraordinary investment in Australian higher education.
