Ashley Doust “I am so grateful for the scholarship, one of the most wonderful surprises to receive. I feel incredibly overjoyed and appreciative that my hard work at UWM was noticed and I could not be more thankful. As the Valedictorian in high school in Ashland, WI, this is my first scholarship. Thank you MOWF!”
