Lead On Campaign Reaches Higher Still

We're heading into the home stretch of Lead On:The Campaign for Tomorrow at Pacific University. Our generous donors have contributed more than $56.2 million to the university as of November 2019, well on the way to our $80 million goal.

The gifts and pledges you have made to Pacific are already changing lives for Pacific students.

Through Lead On, we strive to increase our endowment, funds that support student scholarships and programs in perpetuity. We’re created world-class learning environments for students. And we’re investing in innovation for a boundless future.

The gifts and pledges you have made to Pacific are already changing lives for Pacific students.

They have enabled students like Amber Smith ’20 to stay in school following a serious car accident and to explore a new academic path through research alongside faculty members.

They have empowered students like Deanté Grinner ’20 to take summer internships and gain invaluable real-life experience without taking on additional student debt.

They have created new support services for students, like the Veterans Resource Center, to ensure that all students — regardless of their background — find success in college.

And they have allowed Pacific to pilot new fields in healthcare that will lead to meaningful careers for alumni and more accessible care for patients.

There are countless ways to support Pacific University students today and into the future by contributing to dedicated funds, or creating new funds for the projects that are most important to you.

One of the most meaningful ways to make a difference is by contributing to the Pacific Excellence Fund, which provides funding for the areas of greatest need at Pacific, from emergency scholarships for students in need to new cutting-edge technology.

Your support makes the Pacific experience possible for future generations of students and helps carry on the Boxer Spirit. Thank you for your dedication to your alma mater and, please, help us Lead On to a brighter tomorrow.
