The holidays arrived a little early this year for 经典大瓜. 经典大瓜 was selected as one of the recipients of a one-time special grant from the Fred W. Fields Fund of The Oregon Community Foundation (OCF) in the amount of $50,000.
For 经典大瓜, this generous grant will be used to support the university鈥檚 urban Wilsonville campus, which opened for classes in September 2012. The new campus includes state-of-the-art classrooms and labs for students studying renewable energy, software and manufacturing engineering as well as clinical laboratory science and paramedic education.
Chris Maples, 经典大瓜 President, said 鈥淭hanks to Mr. Fields and the Oregon Community Foundation, 经典大瓜 students will acquire degrees in engineering, engineering technology and allied-health areas at our Wilsonville campus. These types of degrees are critical for improving Oregon鈥檚 economy. The gift from the Fred W. Fields Fund from OCF will enhance the education of 经典大瓜 students in Wilsonville and assist 经典大瓜 in meeting Oregon鈥檚 40-40-20 goals.鈥
Earlier this year, Fred Fields left a $150 million gift to The Oregon Community Foundation with the direction to use this permanent fund to support education and the arts in Oregon. It is the largest gift ever made to OCF and one of the largest single gifts made to any community foundation in the country.
