Student Giving

For generations, alumni and friends have joined together in philanthropic giving to help ensure Pacific McGeorge's position as a leader among law schools. In ways large and small, this support sustains and helps grow student scholarships, supports student organizations, keeps our campus beautiful and ensures that the law school is better equipped to meet today's needs and tomorrow's challenges.

"Giving to Pacific McGeorge is not only important to support the educational institution, but to show pride in our legal education and instill confidence in future generations who hope to attend Pacific McGeorge. Our law school can only be as strong as the students, alumni, faculty and staff that support it." — Andrea Moon

 Andrea Moon Testimonial

The Class of 2008 decided that they too wanted to be a part of making a difference on campus. To that end, they began the Class Gift program providing students the opportunity to give back and stay connected to their law school. Inspired by these students, the Alumni Association Board of Directors became involved and has worked to encourage students to take part in the Class Gift over the past four years. In 2010, taking this involvement one step further, four Alumni Board members volunteered to act as liaisons and mentors, each devoted to an individual class year of students. The Alumni Liaison will be your entrée into the Alumni Association and will work with the Student Philanthropy Committee to facilitate your transition to alumni status.
