University Libraries Student Well-Being Initiative

At Penn State University Libraries, we’re dedicated to enhancing student well-being and academic success through innovative and proactive initiatives. This GivingTuesday, you can play a crucial role in this mission—and your impact will be doubled!

Thanks to the generous support of Sue Paterno and our Libraries Development Board, every dollar you donate will be matched 1:1 up to $25,000! This is a fantastic opportunity to amplify your contribution and support vital programs that make a difference.

Over the past few years, we’ve successfully established sensory-friendly spaces where neurodiverse students can thrive, promoted both mental and physical health through engaging programs, and developed accessible resources that empower every learner.

Our signature program, Libwell, continues to lead these efforts, providing essential activities and services that foster well-being and a sense of belonging in every Penn State Libraries location. Your support will help students achieve academic excellence and pursue their life goals with confidence.

By making a gift to the Student Well-Being Fund, you’ll directly contribute to the initiatives that make Libwell possible. Together, we can create an inclusive environment where every student has the resources they need to succeed.

Join us this GivingTuesday, and with Sue’s generous match, your impact will be even greater!
