Fund a Wildcat
Fund a Wildcat is the Wabash CannonBall's philanthropic portion of the evening that
raised nearly $340,000 at the 2023 event. All high school seniors from across the
greater Kansas City area can apply for the scholarships. Thanks to your generosity,
we were able to award 109 scholarships for the 2023-2024 school year!

for a grand total that qualifies you to win fabulous prizes.
