Linda Look, a former resident of Guam and daughter of the late Dwight Look, recently donated a property gift to the University of Guam totaling 1.2 million square meters located in the villages of Inarajan, Piti, Chalan Pago, Talofofo, Yigo and Yona with an estimated cash value of $4M.

“I want the property to be used now so that current and future students are able to obtain their educational goals,” stated Look.

“This is the largest single contribution that UOG has received and we are extremely grateful to her for remembering Guam, her childhood home,” said Dr. Robert A. Underwood, UOG President.

Mark Mendiola, UOG Endowment Foundation Executive Director, added,  “We thank Ms. Look for her contribution to the University of Guam.  This estate planned giving is an example of how members of our community can help build a campus for many students and generations to come.” 

The University of Guam’s 60th Anniversary Capital Campaign’s effort to raise 30 million dollars aims to provide Guam’s students with the necessary tools and resources to compete in an ever-changing global economy.

According to Ms. Look, “UOG’s vision of a 21^st century campus is also my own.”
