EOU Foundation
In the 2014-15 academic year, the EOU Foundation awarded over $400,000 in scholarships to students at EOU and partner institutions BMCC, OSU, OHSU and TVCC. With an endowment of over $11 million, the Foundation is currently in the quiet phase of an $11 million fundraising campaign kick-started by an anonymous donation of $1.5 million. The 2013 fiscal year concluded with restricted gifts totaling over $1.1 million. Visit the EOU Foundation online for more information.
Economic Impact
EOU’s annual $44 million budget equates to $110 million added to promote the regional economy. An essential part of the fabric of northeast Oregon, EOU plays a unique role as an economic engine. EOU is also home to two essential grant-funded services in the region: Eastern Oregon Head Start, an early childhood education program; and the Small Business Development Center, providing resources and advising to small business owners and entrepreneurs.
