The Power of Private Philanthropy

Private philanthropy can be transformative. Through the Davis United World College Scholars Program, talented individual students and outstanding educational institutions are being transformed by the philanthropic investments of Shelby and Gale Davis. The program’s long-term goal is to create greater international understanding among future generations of the world’s decision-makers by bringing together a growing number of promising students from diverse cultures and supporting their undergraduate educations at selected American colleges and universities.

If you are inclined to invest your own philanthropy in a college or university of your choice, in the program shown here or in the United World Colleges, we encourage you to do so. Your investment can help change the world. For assistance, please contact:
