As part of its 60th Anniversary Capital Campaign (2012-2017), the UOG Endowment Foundation made an appeal to its community business partners for their support in bringing a vision for the 21st Century Campus to fruition. This campaign would help provide funding for necessary facilities to help create an enhanced campus life that would instill pride in our community and region. This would provide new spaces for students to strive for excellence and for faculty to conduct world-class research.

In 2014, Goodwind Development Corporation (GDC) joined other individuals and businesses in this campaign endeavor. As visionary partners, GDC pledged $500,000 and provided an initial $100,000 in commitment. In 2025, the university expects to have construction completed on four new buildings: Dr. Lucio C. Tan Student Success Center, School of Engineering Building, the Margaret Perez Uchima School of Health Nursing Annex, and the Water Environmental Research Institution Facility.

“The University of Guam extends its extreme gratitude to Goodwind Development Corporation for its amazing generosity towards the Dr. Lucio C. Tan Student Success Center that will benefit students and our community at large for years to come,” said President Anita Borja Enriquez. “We would also like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Dr. Lucio C. Tan and his family for their vision, support, and unwavering commitment to the success of future generations."

The contribution from Goodwind Development Corporation reinforces the enduring legacy of Dr. Lucio C. Tan and his family’s support for the University of Guam. The Tan family’s previous philanthropic efforts, including a $1 million donation in 2003, have helped shape the university’s facilities and programs, leaving an indelible mark on its community.
