With Gratitude To Our Endowment Donors

Endowments

Through the extraordinary generosity of ARCS donors, the Oregon Chapter has established 35 Endowments for Scholar Awards since 2015. Many ARCS donors amplified their impact with matching funds offered by our University Partners - Oregon Health & Science University, Oregon State University, and the University of Oregon.

Erik Torasson - Institute of Molecular Biology, UO
"Receiving an ARCS Scholar Award has been pivotal to my success as a graduate student. In my first year, my award enabled me to move to Oregon from the Midwest and pursue my PhD. Further, by supplementing my income throughout the important early years of my PhD, my ARCS award has reduced financial stresses and allowed me to focus on my development as a scientist, student, teacher, and mentor. Just as importantly, receiving an ARCS award has enabled me to interact with the incredible members of ARCS Oregon. Completing a PhD is not easy, but knowing that I have the unwavering support and excitement of the ARCS members behind me has been an important vote of confidence in my abilities and potential as a scientist. Together, the financial and social support of ARCS has helped me through the many challenges required to realize my goals of becoming a research scientist."
