\u201cTritons Invest It Forward\u201d is the theme for the inaugural year of a newly established fund under the University of Guam Office of Development and Alumni Affairs. The Triton Annual Fund is calling upon UOG alumni, their family members, and all friends of the university to invest in the next generation of UOG graduates and the betterment of the community through donations, sponsorships, and other activities.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cFor 70 years, UOG has played a vital role in developing our island\u2019s professional workforce, understanding and solving issues that affect our region, and engaging with the community. This fund will be an important means of securing resources that aren\u2019t covered by government or general operations funding and will make these things possible on a greater scale,\u201d said Norman Analista, director of development, alumni affairs, and foundation relations.\u00a0\u00a0

\u00a0Over the year-long campaign, the Office of Development and Alumni Affairs will be reaching out to graduates, parents, and friends of UOG electronically, through direct mail, and by phone to generate support for the fund.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Supporters can donate in any amount to the school, college, or program of their choice or can make a general donation to the Annual Fund, where it will be used to support the university\u2019s greatest needs related to enriching student learning and campus life.\u00a0
