Nichole Lindquist-Kleissler ’15
As a student caller for Puget Sound’s Phon-a-Thon (now the Student Philanthropy Center) and one of the leaders for her class’s Senior Class Gift campaign, Nichole Lindquist-Kleissler ’15 got an early start giving back to the university. “Our class still holds the highest Senior Class Gift participation rate,” she says proudly. Now, as associate director of annual giving, Lindquist-Kleissler focuses primarily on the office’s print and digital communications and Logger Day Challenge—so tomorrow is kind of like her Super Bowl. New features to the one-day giving event this year, including an expanded showcase of campus programs and initiatives, and the largest Logger Day Challenge match ever, have her excited to share all the ways Loggers can participate. “Logger Day Challenge gives us all an opportunity to celebrate,” she says. “It’s a chance for us to show up for each other—at whatever level and in whatever ways we can—to celebrate the whole Puget Sound community.”
