My memory is still vivid--applying for college and searching for loans, grants, and scholarships to pay my tuition and living costs.  It was a real struggle at the time and as I entered the work force I promised myself that when I was able, I would establish a scholarship fund for undergraduate students.

​

During my time at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater, as an Associate Dean, my promise was fulfilled.  I established the endowed Birch and Aspen Research Scholarship to support students in the university's multi-disciplinary undergraduate research programs.

​

Each month a percentage of Dickmann and Associates' income is added to the fund.  Every year, a deserving student is awarded the scholarship to support various aspects of their research.

Dickmann and Associates is exploring other philanthropic opportunities--check back for updates.

Making a difference together!
