Giving Day
WSCF’s Giving Day is held each fall to celebrate Williston State and gather support during a 24-hour period to boost a number of areas on campus.  The WSCF matches donor’s gifts to strengthen the impact of Giving Day.  Giving Day donors may support any of the following areas or may simply make a discretionary gift which is administered by the Foundation to support WSC’s many needs.


Terry Olson Athletic Fund
The WSC Foundation is proud to establish the Terry Olson Athletic Fund to support Teton Athletics at Williston State. For 26 years from 1982-2008, Coach Olson built the Teton Athletic program into one of the premier community college athletic departments in the Midwest.
 
His tireless work as Athletic Director and Head Men’s Basketball Coach saw outstanding accomplishments[1]from championships to new facilities to development of the college and the Tetons. From the moment of his hiring, the Tetons took on a new look and its landscape was forever changed.
 
The Terry Olson Athletic Fund looks to continue the improvement of Williston State College and the Tetons. Funds will support athletic scholarships, athletic program operations and athletic facility improvements.
 
Thank you for considering a gift to the Terry Olson Athletic Fund.

Our Vision
The Williston State College Foundation works to keep the college competitive and comprehensive in today’s ever-changing market by developing a strong liberal arts transfer program, advanced science and technology, and technical and trade specialization, while making Williston State a regional center for educational, cultural and recreational activity.
