The Pitzer Fund - Academic Initiatives

On #GivingTuesday, make a gift to the Pitzer Fund in support of academic initiatives such as Study Abroad.

Academic initiatives also include:

• Classroom enhancement and resources
• Curriculum development
• Research
• Faculty salaries

“Study abroad is important because it allows Pitzer students to gain

a better cultural understanding of different cultures and, in many cases,

broaden their language knowledge and overall knowledge and confidence.”

Sarah Norise ’16 in Ecuador, Psychology major

A majority of Pitzer students study abroad. They expand their horizons and bring back the cultural understanding and real-world experiences they gain. Many students highlight study abroad as one of their best experiences at Pitzer.

Your donation to the Pitzer Fund will allow our students to continue seeing and learning about the world.
