Thank you to Commonwealth Cares & The Baupost Group

By

Volunteers have played a crucial role throughout The Wily Network’s history. Over the past decade, Wily has built increasingly expansive relationships with corporate partners that are committed to our mission and have made impactful contributions to our work. Two corporate partners, Commonwealth Cares and The Baupost Group exemplify what it means to walk with Wily Scholars.

Commonwealth Cares

Commonwealth Cares has been a dedicated supporter as care package champions since 2021, and today, they have taken their commitment even further as gift givers for two new Scholars.

“Our relationship with The Wily Network is built on a shared commitment to student success. At Commonwealth Cares Fund, we believe that getting into college is only the first step of a long journey. By ensuring that our donations go directly to those programs that help the students, we feel that we are a part of providing the essential building blocks that allow these hardworking students to persist, thrive, and ultimately graduate.”

Commonwealth Cares’ engagement models how organizations can invest in Wily Scholars’ journeys, becoming a key part of each Scholar’s success story and valued members of the Wily Pack.

The Baupost Group

The Baupost Group is one of Wily’s strongest corporate supporters. As Junior-level Sponsors, in-kind donors, and emergency gift givers for the holiday season since 2023: donating over 100 gift items for 37 Scholars in three years, Baupost has consistently shown up for Wily Scholars in meaningful, tangible ways.

“At Baupost, volunteering is an important extension of how we think about giving back, and the wish list drive initiative with The Wily Network gives our employees a tangible way to support students who are navigating college without a traditional safety net. It’s incredibly meaningful to see how many colleagues get involved and how invested everyone becomes in fulfilling wish lists for each scholar.”

Commonwealth Cares and The Baupost Group model how corporations reach beyond traditional support. Their investment is about much more than what it provides when you consider what it means: a visible gesture that shows Scholars that they are valued and that they are not in it alone. As one Scholar put it, “Wily, to me, became more than just an organization helping me. It became a family.
