"Building Our Future, Portland State University's first-ever comprehensive fund-raising campaign, concluded on June 30 at $114 million—$24 million over our original goal!
We owe this tremendous accomplishment to the more than 28,000 alumni, friends, faculty, and staff who contributed to scholarships and projects throughout campus.
I can't begin to calculate the impact your generosity will have, and already has had, on the lives of students and on the economic, social, and cultural well-being of our community. I firmly believe that everyone who lives in this region benefits from the contributions of Portland State University. Your commitment and support make it possible. Thank you."
-- Dan Bernstine
President, Portland State University

"Receiving a scholarship is helping me accomplish my dreams. Because of it, I was able to volunteer as a medical interpreter in a clinic. I saw the needs of my Latino community and came away with a passion to become a physician. It's impossible for me to express my gratitude, and I can only hope that someday I can do the same for someone else."
-- Maria Herrera, biology major and 2006 recipient of the Ruben Sierra Deans Scholarship
