Meet Keaton Ayala Cruz, a first-year Pre-Ed major with an ESOL minor! 🎓 As a first-generation Hispanic student, he chose WOU for its supportive small community, strong school spirit, amazing music program, and the pride of being Oregon’s first public 4-year HSI.
He’s already deeply... involved on campus through Chamber Singers and TWOU, which have been major highlights of his year. Nothing beats making music with people who love it just as much! 🎶
After graduation, Keaton hopes to teach K–12 in Oregon someday and be the representation he wished he had seen growing up. 📚
And for his top Monmouth pick? Yeasty Beasty. Best pizza AND best garlic bread. Hands down!🍕
Today is Giving Tuesday, and as the season turns from one of gratitude into the season of giving, I hope you will consider making a gift to Abby’s House to meet the basic needs of our students and community members. Here are some ways your gift can help WOU students:
$25.00 can pay for a... gift card to be used by a student at a local grocery store.
$50.00 can purchase a gift card that can be used by a student to buy gas.
$100.00 can cover the cost of supplies for a workshop that enables students to find basic supplies and services in our community.
$250.00 can bestow an emergency aid grant to a student in need.
$500.00 can deliver rent support for a student survivor of domestic violence.
Your gift will help ensure that all WOU students have a roof over their head, warm clothing, and full stomachs, all of which are essential to academic and personal success.
Thank you for truly making a difference in the lives of students at WOU.
