Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at Penn State

The Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) at Penn State is a membership-based, volunteer-driven organization designed for community members aged 50 and better. OLLI offers a variety of educational courses, social enrichment opportunities, and travel and volunteer experiences—all without homework, grades, or tests.

Testimonials highlight the value of OLLI:

• "OLLI provides opportunities for lifelong learning and has such a diverse course selection."
• "OLLI has been instrumental in helping me meet a lot of new people I didn't know before."

While Penn State supports OLLI, our Osher endowment requires us to maintain successful fundraising efforts to ensure financial stability. Your participation in GivingTuesday is crucial for our mission's success.

Your gift today will support OLLI’s financial and operational sustainability and enhance our ability to offer high-quality programming. Your donation helps with:

• Recognizing instructors and volunteers
• Community outreach
• Financial assistance for those in need
• Operational needs (e.g., catalog production, listening devices, facility fees, and technology)

Every dollar donated advances our mission to provide a vibrant, welcoming space for lifelong learning.

Together, we make a difference. Can we count on you?
