Winter 2015 Pacific Magazine Celebrates Philanthropy

The Winter 2015 issue of Pacific magazine celebrates the philanthropic gifts that help Pacific University thrive.

The generosity of donors to Pacific supports our innovative programs, our state-of-the-art facilities, and our ability to offer competitive scholarships and financial aid packages to students who may not otherwise have access to a Pacific education.

But your gifts to Pacific do even more. Our 25,000 alumni are taking their educations into the world to make a difference, as healthcare providers and entrepreneurs, teachers, volunteers and so much more.

This issue of Pacific magazines celebrates not only the generosity of donors, but the impact of their gifts.
