About

Letโ€™s come together as Lutes to show the world that weโ€™re still committed to what we love! 


Gifts of all sizes make a difference and you can make a gift to anything you love at PLU and have it matched with a gift to student scholarships.


Bjug Day has always been a fun philanthropic tradition. And this year because of the financial impact of the pandemic, itโ€™s more important than ever to come together to raise money for student scholarships and other causes across PLU. 


Your support right now of what you love at PLU helps students continue their education and sets students up to lead lives of thoughtful inquiry, service, leadership and care. (Just the kind of people our world needs!)


We know not everyone can give right now, but if you can, we hope you will. If you canโ€™t give a donation at this time, you can still help by making sure other Lutes know about Bjug Day. Share on social media using and tell others what you love about PLU. 


However you โ€œGo Bjug,โ€ thank you! 

Updates
Thank You, Lutes!

Let's Get To 1,250 Strong And Beyond!


Already 1,050 people have participated in this big-hearted day! But we're not done yet and there's still scholarship match dollars to unlock! Let's keep pushing, Lutes, during this time of increased need. Can we get to 1,250 strong and beyond?
