In honor of Wallace Winkie—a 35-year classroom teacher, a WWII vet, and a 60-year community volunteer—the Wallace Winkie Foundation promotes lifelong learning at a local and a state level. To fulfill that mission, the Foundation sponsors a scholarship program for nontraditional students, a Lifelong Learner Hall of Fame for Iowans, a lifelong learning expo, and other community and state events. The Foundation has partnered on programs with the Department on Aging, the Department of Education, AARP Iowa, UNI's Lifelong University, the Heritage Area Agency on Aging, and the Pella Historical Society and Museums.
