OLLI at Pacific was founded in 2006. Originally started as the Pacific Experience in 1997 and with the endowment from the Osher Foundation we were given the support to really grow our membership and provide lifelong learning as part of a group of 124 OLLI’s across the country. We are now facing major changes and challenges to our beloved program with the onset and continuation of the COVID19 pandemic.
Everyone likes to be part of something bigger than themselves. In order for us to reach our goal of $15,000, we need all hands on deck. We’re inviting you to join with fellow OLLI members and invest in our faculty, staff and members. Together, we build a stronger future for OLLI at Pacific. Your gift will help with:
Every gift counts; every dollar you give makes a difference here at OLLI. Join us and help OLLI at Pacific reach our goal of $20,000 FOR THE LOVE OF LEARNING.
A gift of $50 could purchase a webcam for our instructors to adequately provide the best distance-learning experience possible from their new class environment.
A gift of $100 could cover the cost of an OLLI at Pacific membership, provided in the form of a scholarship. Especially to those members who may have faced a financial hardship during the COVID19 pandemic.
A gift of $150 could pay for a monthly Zoom webinar that allows us to record our weekly lecture series to share with members while providing an enhanced learning experience.
A gift of $500 could pay for a semester of Facebook advertising and promotions to share OLLI with potential new members, especially those who would like to participate via online distance-learning.
