WELCOME NEW UO CORPORATE PARTNERS
President Dave Frohnmayer welcomed six
new companies to the UO corporate partners
program in April 2007, bringing the number
of partners to 77. Companies become partners
when they have given $25,000 or more to
the university in a fiscal year. The program
was launched in 2005 with 48 partners
and was so well received, membership increased
by 60% in less than two years.
Corporations know that investing in higher
education is good for business and the
state’s economy. But cash and in-kind
gifts are not all they contribute. In
fiscal year 2005-06 our partners donated
nearly $4 million to the university, interacted
with students and faculty members across
campus, and volunteered hundreds of hours
of professional expertise.
The University of Oregon salutes our corporate
partners. With their help, we are transforming
lives.
