MISSION
To promote opportunities for students aged 50+ to expand their knowledge and enhance their quality of life through intellectually stimulating non-credit personal enrichment programming in an environment conducive to social and cultural interaction.

THE BERNARD OSHER FOUNDATION
Founded in 1977, the Bernard Osher Foundation of California and Maine has generously supported cultural and arts organizations, with a focus on university-based non-credit programs serving students aged 50+. Emphasis is placed on learning for the joy of learning and on keeping seasoned adults in touch with a larger world. In 2006, FIU received an Osher grant to support our lifelong learning effort. There are now 115 Osher Lifelong Learning Institutes (OLLIs) on university and college campuses across the country. To maintain this grant, FIU’s program must demonstrate student, community and university support for its efforts. Please show support for lifelong learning in your community by making a tax-deductible donation on our website at www.caps.fiu.edu/olli or at our office when you join us.
