The Incarnate Word Academy Foundation (IWAF) newsletter, Advancing the Mission, provides the IWA community with information and updates regarding the Foundation’s recent activities and endeavors. The IWAF is a separate non-profit entity, which operates independently from IWA. It was established by the Sisters of the Incarnate Word and Blessed Sacrament (IWBS) in 1989 to provide Incarnate Word Academy with adequate funding for scholarships and educational development well into the future.
