Wonder Changes the World

Wonder may begin with the spark of an idea, but it’s ignited when others help make it happen. By giving to a university that thrives on wonder, you light the fire in our students, faculty and staff to do even more, to dream and create today and well into tomorrow, to imagine bigger and, in turn, fuel a better future for the world. Together we can help those who will go on to accomplish the extraordinary.

Fuel Future Leaders

As the cost of education rises, scholarships continue to be vitally important to fulfilling the University of Arizona’s land-grant mission. They provide access to education, reducing financial barriers that can keep talented students from pursuing a degree. Your support of scholarships is an investment in the leaders and innovators who will go on to address society’s most pressing challenges.
