🌿Greetings Everyone,

We are so grateful for all of our community and look forward to seeing many of you at the ITECK Center & Oak Savanna Community Forum next week.

This Giving Tuesday and Winter season we would like to share the best way to help support our students and program! Please see the flier which reads:

Consider a gift to PSU ITECK
(Indigenous Traditional, Ecological & Cultural Knowledge)

Your contributions help create scholarships, stipends, special projects, and design work for ITECK students, as well as provide resources for the PSU Oak Savanna and ITECK Center restoration projects. This is a great way to support Indigenous scholarship and invest in a future that centers ITECK. Learn more about ITECK, the Oak Savanna, our program and projects by visiting our Instagram, website, and linktree.
