UW Libraries - The J. Eleanor Pearson Endowed Library Fund for Human Rights

The purpose of the Endowment is to support the purchase of books, films and other materials, projects and initiatives that will strengthen the Libraries' collections in human rights.

The J. Eleanor Pearson Endowed Library Fund for Human Rights was established in 2002 to honor the memory of J. Eleanor Pearson by her daughter Glenda Pearson as a fitting tribute to the achievements and values represented by the life of Eleanor Pearson and her interests in justice and equal opportunity for all peoples.
