UWC's mission of using education as a force to unite people, nations and cultures for peace and a sustainable future is only made possible with the continued support of our funding partners. 

Shelby M. C. Davis

Shelby Davis is one of UWC’s greatest-ever supporters, with his family’s involvement with the UWC movement going back to the year 1998. With a highly successful investment and fund management career, Davis devoted his personal and financial energies to a number of philanthropic aims, focusing on education. 

In 2021 he doubled his annual Davis-UWC Dare to Dream Program pledge from USD 5 million to USD 10 million, leading to the creation of up to 300 new scholarships per year through this program only.
