Donate Today for Tomorrow's Paper Engineers!

Through your continued financial support, we will be able to offer scholarships to our academically talented future engineers. Your gift can make the difference this year! We are suggesting $150 to make our targeted annual scholarship awards in the amount of approximately $250,000.

Over the past 51 years, the availability of the PTF scholarship funds has seldom been in jeopardy. Because of the recent financial crisis and its impact on our endowments, our funding is at a seriously low level, thus limiting awards to current students and reducing the number of freshmen we can offer scholarships to: 10 compared to 44 last year. Your generous involvement is what can make it possible for this “Rainy Day Fund” to meet the financial needs of this year’s students. In these challenging times, your philanthropy keeps us strong and is more crucial than ever. Your personal participation is vital!
