#DucksGive 2018

The Wayne Morse Center for Law and Politics encourages civic engagement and inspires enlightened dialogue by bringing students, scholars, activists, policymakers, and communities together to discuss issues affecting Oregon, our nation, and the world. The Wayne Morse Center trains future public leaders to reach beyond partisan labels and conflicts to encourage fresh thinking and effective solutions to public problems. It carries on the fighting spirit and political independence of Oregon’s Senator Wayne Morse by promoting education and research to advance justice and democracy.

Give to the Wayne Morse Center for Law and Politics during #DucksGive, and support civic engagement and enlightened dialogue.

The UO Parents' Fund is a unique fund set up to support areas on the UO campus that directly impact the student experience. UO parents have asked that specific areas on campus be funded through the Parents' Fund and because of our unique partnership with Student Life, we have done just this. The Parents' Fund directly supports student engagement activities, leadership and service programs, career services and student safety and health programs.

Give to the Parents' Fund for #DucksGive, and help make a positive impact on the student experience at the University of Oregon.

SPICE stands for the Science Program to Inspire Creativity and Excellence. SPICE offers cohort based summer camps in science for middle school aged girls. The goal of the program is to encourage more girls to pursue science, technology, education, and mathematics (STEM) education and careers by fostering of love of science. SPICE camps last for two weeks and provide a host of exciting hands-on science activities lead by relatable instructors using well-researched techniques for engaging children with science.

SPICE scholarships help girls who do not have the resources to secure other forms of science outreach, girls for whom a college education may seem out of reach. In addition to providing campers with a rich science experience, camp also places emphasis on exposing girls to the university setting and showing them ways to access higher education, regardless of their socioeconomic status.
