Exciting news!
SHOC just received notification from OHSU that it has been made an associate of the President's Society. Membership into this society recognizes the special partnership between the SHOC Foundation and the university. As a member of this society, SHOC is invited to partake in special OHSU events, receive recognition in published OHSU materials, and have availability to exclusive communication and interaction with OHSU personnel, scholars and other influential leaders. Associate members are recognized as “donors whose vision and generosity is driving OHSU into the future of limitless possibility… …President’s Society members are fueling achievement and innovation, advancing the frontiers of health and science, transforming technology, expanding educational opportunities, promoting public service, and fostering investment in the health of the region and all who live there.” The SHOC Foundation is currently a Bronze Medallion level donor. Over the past four years, SHOC has donated $223,000 in restricted cash gifts. This means the money SHOC donates goes straight into the gynecologic laboratory of Dr. Tanje Pejovic at the Knight Cancer Institute. Medallion levels are determined by gifts donated over a lifetime. Entering into its fifth fiscal year, SHOC is only $27,000 away from becoming a Silver Medallion level donor. At the rate SHOC is going, the foundation will likely move to the Silver Medallion level by next summer!
