Peru State College Foundation hosting Giving Week

By John Nixon

08/27/2024

(KLZA)-- Peru State College is conducting it's first-ever Giving Week.

The Campus of a Thousand Oaks is buzzing with activity as new and returning students are beginning a new year.

Giving Week is a celebration of the collective spirit that has built and sustained Peru State for more than 157 years.

The Peru State Foundation hosted a 24-hour Giving Day in October in years past. The Foundation Board and staff earlier this year felt that a Giving Week correlating with the start of the 158th year of education would be a better way to go.

The areas of support for Giving Week are diverse. They include capital campaigns which includes Project ROAR, the AV Larson / Welcome Center and the Student Center.

Campaigns to support the various academic or athletic needs are also part of Giving Week. Donors can give to what they love by designating their gift to any area on campus that means the most to them.

Donors may also give funds to the Greatest Needs through the Foundation which provides funding to help maintain a vibrant campus culture.

Ten different challenges and or match programs will aid the event. One will match up to the first $10,000 raised. Other matches or challenges include the men's basketball program, volleyball program, Homecoming, music program, Hall of Fame, South Africa science trip, Dr. Seuss Day and School of Professional Studies.
