How to Support the Division of Natural Sciences
Thank you for your interest in supporting Natural Sciences at PLU! There are many great options for designating your gifts to a particular department or area of the sciences. We’re currently participating in PLU’s Bjug Day of Giving, a big-hearted annual tradition named after PLU’s bearded founder, the Rev. Bjug Harstad. During Bjug Day, Lutes across the world come together to celebrate and invest in what they love about PLU.
If you’d like to support the Natural Sciences and our students, you can select Division of Natural Sciences or Other and specify a certain department, program, or fund on your online donation form. You can elect to give one time or set up monthly recurring gifts. Below you’ll find a list of the incredible programs and funds under the Natural Sciences umbrella.
