Learn more about your impact
Experience Matters, a program of the ASU Lodestar Center for Philanthropy and Nonprofit Innovation, connects the skills and talent of individuals with social-benefit organizations to enhance their capacity to solve community problems. We offer year-long Encore Fellowships, short-term Service by Design assignments and AmeriCorps National Service programs. We are building a powerful network and creating sustainable outcomes for the betterment of the community. Your generous donation will help Experience Matters reach more nonprofits, engage more individuals, and ultimately create stronger and more vibrant communities. Your contribution expands program reach, enables the onboarding and training of new members, and creates lasting impact.
Although our food bank does almost a million pounds of food donated to the community each year, we have never had someone with our Experience Matters Encore Fellow's skill set look at our systems. We will be able to serve more families with more accurate data.”
Impact of Donor Support
By making a gift to Experience Matters, you are not just supporting a program — you are investing in the future of our communities. The positive ripple effects of experienced professionals lending their skills to nonprofits will be felt for years to come.
We want to show the power of a university to be a difference-making partner in the positive transformation of all communities."
