Philanthropy in Our Community Celebrating Leadership and Philanthropy in Our Community Philanthropy Awards 2011 Change the world with a giving heart PORTLAND TRIBUNE COMMUNITY NEWSPAPERS The Association of Fundraising Professionals Oregon & Southwest Washington Chapter Thanks to more than 2600 donors, the Linus Pauling Science Center will serve as a home for scientific discovery at OSU for years to come. PHILANTHROPY: HELPING OSU BUILD LEADERS 10 FOR OREGON STATERS, philanthropy is in our roots. The university’s oldest building, Benton Hall, was an early gift from the citizens of Benton County in 1888. That great tradition of generosity continues. Thanks to our growing community of supporters, Oregon State opened two new privately-funded buildings this fall, the Linus Pauling Science Center and the Hallie Ford Center for Healthy Children and Families, and soon will open a restored Joyce Collin Furman Hall, home to the College of Education. More than bricks and mortar, these buildings will help inspire tomorrow’s leaders. At OSU, we understand the power of private giving. And we know that the winners of this year’s AFP Philanthropy Awards are likewise transforming their communities and the lives of those around them. CONGRATULATIONS.

  • From Stumptown to Tree Town
    FROM STUMPTOWN TO TREE TOWN A Field Guide for Interpreting Portland’s History through its Heritage Trees BYDAVIDPAULBHEDBERG WITHDESIGNBYREHANAHUSPENCE PORTLAND HERITAGETREE PROGRAM In 1993 a group of concerned citizens succeeded in convincing the Portland City Council to pass the Heritage Tree code. Heritage Trees have special importance to the city “because of their age, size, type, historical association or horticultural value.” Under the code, the Urban Forestry Commission is responsible for recommending future Heritage Tree nominations to the City Council, which makes the final decision. However any citizen can nominate a tree; in fact, the method to do so is included in the back of this guide. Portland’s Heritage Tree program is somewhat unique to other cities because the designation is affixed to the property title for the life of the tree—even when the property is sold. Because of this, property owners must consent to Heritage Tree nomination and a qualified arborist must first certify that the tree is healthy and has enough space to grow to maturity. Since the program began over twenty years ago, the City Council has listed over 300 Heritage Trees on private and public property.

  • To Access the David Duniway Papers Finding Aide
    Container List 1999.013 ~ Records ~ Duniway, David C. 07/19/2017 Container Folder Location Creator Date Title Description Subjects Box 01 1.01 1868-1980 Adolph-Gill Bldgs The materials in this folder relate to the buildings owned and occupied by J.K. Gill & Co. and by Sam Adolph. These two buildings are in the heart of the original business district of Salem. The Gill Building (1868) is west of the Adolph Block (1880), and they share a staircase. The Gill building was later referred to as the Paulus Building, as it was acquired by Christopher Paulus in 1885; both Robert and Fred Paulus were born upstairs in the building. The Adolph Building was erected by Sam Adolph following a fire that destroyed the wooden buildings on the site; the architect was J.S. Coulter. References to articles in the Daily American Unionist from April 23, 1868 through September 8, 1868 describe the four new brick buildings under construction on State and Commercial Streets. Thes buildings are the intended new homes for the businesses of J.K. Gill & Co., Charley Stewart, Durbin & Co., and Governor Wood's new dwelling. Progress is periodically described. Finally, the first ten days of September, 1868, the moves appear complete and advertisements indicate the items they will carry. Another article in the September 8, 1868 issue indicates that Story and Thompson are moving a house lately occupied by J.K. Gill and Co. to the eastern edge of the lot so that when it is time to construct additional brick buildings, there will be space.

With its founding in the new western state of Oregon, it is the oldest American library west of the Mississippi River. This paper takes an in-depth look at the history of this award-winning library. Beginning with its inception in multiple private libraries and the roles of prominent businessmen in its founding, the paper will then address the impact of a professional librarian, Mary Frances Isom, in laying the groundwork for the future operations of the library when it became public at the turn of the century. Furthermore, it will detail the contemporary efforts and priorities of the library, its successes, and its context as a valuable institution in not only its commu- nity but in the United States. The Multnomah County Library has built on its early glory and become an im- Resumen portant cultural resource in an overwhelmingly literary population: the Portland metropolitan area.

  • Jason Lee Was Selected As the Leader of the Missionary Party
    CHAPTER LXII METHODIST CHURCH HISTORY In the spring of 1833 Rev. Wilbur Fisk issued an appeal in the Chris- tian Advocate and Journal arid also in Zioiz'g Herald, asking for volun- teers to go as missionaries to the Indians in the Oregon Country.Meet- ings were held in the various Methodist churches on the Atlantic seaboard, and funds were raised to pay the expense of sending missionaries to the country beyond the Rocky Mountains. Jason Lee was selected as the leader of the missionary party and received his appointment on July 17, 1833.His father, Daniel Lee, was born in Connecticut, as was his mother, whose maiden name was Sarah Whitaker.Mr. and Mrs. Lee moved to Vermont, where they lived for fifteen years, and later moved to Stanstead, in Canada, in 1800.Jason Lee was born at Stanstead in 1803. Jason Lee was 6 feet 3 inches high.He spent his youth and early manhood working in the woods of Canada. He was converted when he was twenty-three years old.The following year he entered Wesleyan Academy, at Wilbraham, Mass., of which Dr. Wilbur Fisk was president. He offered his services to the Missionary Society of London to go as a missionary to the Indians of Canada.While waiting to hear from the Wesleyan Missionary Society of London, he was offered the position of superintendent of missions for the Oregon Country, which he accepted. He appointed as his assistant, his nephew, Rev. Daniel Lee. The missionary board in New York appropriated $3,000 for the work in Oregon.

  • The Souvenir of Western Women
    -1 oiiie The Souvenir of Western Women Edited by MARY OSBORN DOUTHIT PORTLAND. OREGON 1905 Copyright, 1905, by Mary Osborn Douthit Presses of ANDEItSON & DUNIWAY COMPANY Portland, Oregon PRE FACE HE SOUVENIR .OF WESTERN WOMEN bears upon its pages a complex picture of he works and pioneer experiences of the women in the Pacific Northwestthe "Old Oregon" country from the time of woman's first appearance in these unexplored wilds to the present day. The purpose of this book is to record woman's part in working out the plan of our Westeri civilization; no other civilization, perhaps, bearingso con- spicuously the imprint of her hand and her brain.In coming to this country through all the perils, privations, and hardships of the longest journeyever made by a migratory people in search of homes, she marched side by side with man. Upon arriving here she could acquire equally with him a part of the public domain (the first instance of the kind on record). In patience, courage, and enduraiwe, woman proved man's equal.In her ability to cope with strenuous conditions, she was again his recognizedpeer. The powers thus erLgendered within her must perforce have leftan indelible impression on the body politic. Their dominance is apparent in our colleges and universities, all of which are builded upon co-education as. a corner-stone, and all of which also accept women as co-members of the faculty. From the beginning of statehood in all the states carved out of the "Old Oregon" country, women have been admitted to the practice of thepro- fessions on an equality with men.In the legislative halls woman's voice has been heard, and some of our most salutary laws owe their originto her thought.
