September 16, 2015
POCATELLO – The I Love ڰ Campaign Celebration and Business After Hours will be held from 5 to 7 p.m. Sept. 17 in the main lounge area on the Pond Student Union’s main floor.
The total amount raised for the 33rd annual I Love ڰ Scholarship Campaign will be announced in this event sponsored by the Greater Pocatello Chamber of Commerce and the scholarship campaign.
ڰ faculty and staff, and the general public are invited to attend and enjoy the festivities, food and beverages, the latter supplied by Watkins Distributing.
This annual campaign, running this year from Sept. 1 through Sept. 17, is the most recognizable fundraising effort at ڰ. Each September, more than 150 volunteers dedicate their time to contacting local business owners, alumni and ڰ employees requesting their support for scholarships. This year’s chair is David G. Gates, Fire Chief of the Pocatello Fire Department and the co-chair is Mary Vagner, retired School District No. 25 superintendent.
“Come join us to support the success of this year’s I Love ڰ scholarship campaign that has raised funds to give deserving Idaho students the opportunity to go to college and make a difference in the future,” Gates said.
The campaign included Pocatello, American Falls, Blackfoot, Idaho Falls and the surrounding communities.
All gifts and pledges made in support of the I Love ڰ Scholarship Fund will be awarded to Idaho residents during their freshman year at ڰ and continue through their four years of academic study.
During the campaign, donors could also direct their gifts to other areas of the university including colleges, departments and student programs.
