Kaykas-Wolff Family ’98 Match for the MacKenzie Scott 2020 Fund

The Kaykas-Wolff Family ’98 Match for the MacKenzie Scott 2020 Fund

Author and philanthropist MacKenzie Scott made a transformative $12 million gift in December 2020 to support Whittier’s mission of equity and inclusion for student success.

Ms. Scott’s unrestricted donation will be apportioned to the areas that will make the greatest impact at Whittier, including additional need-based scholarships, new innovative programs, and supporting the College’s Racial Justice and Equity Action Plan.  

The Kaykas-Wolff Family has issued the following challenge to the entire Poet family: To raise $10,000 for the MacKenzie Scott 2020 Fund, the Kaykas-Wolff family has generously committed a total of $5,000 to match gifts during the Big Poet Give, dollar for dollar.  

Trustee Jascha Kaykas-Wolff ’98 and his wife Rebecca Kaykas-Wolff are thrilled to show their gratitude for this amazing gift and invite everyone to participate with a gift of their own. Donations of all sizes count for this dollar-for-dollar match. Give today and get your gift doubled!
