An investment in the future<\/h2>\n

In 2013, state fruit growers finalized a promise for a $32 million endowment fund\u2014the largest gift in Washington State University\u2019s history\u2014to make WSU a globally competitive tree fruit research institution. Developed in partnership with the Washington Tree Fruit Research Commission, the endowment was initiated through grower-voted assessments in the apple, pear, cherry, and stone fruit industries.<\/p>\n

The fund supports priority research projects, modern test orchards and equipment, outreach efforts, and personnel, energizing WSU\u2019s Tree Fruit Research and Extension Program to solve the challenges of today, and prepare for a more profitable and sustainable tomorrow. Priorities are guided by the Tree Fruit Endowment Advisory Committee (EAC), whose membership is appointed by organizations including the Northwest Fresh Pear Committee, Washington State Fruit Commission, Washington Tree Fruit Research Commission, and the Washington Apple Commission.<\/p>\n
