ASU is a comprehensive public research university, measured not by whom it excludes, but by whom it includes and how they succeed; advancing research and discovery of public value; and assuming fundamental responsibility for the economic, social, cultural and overall health of the communities it serves.
Responding to our community's greatest needs
We face an unprecedented moment in our history as the COVID-19 pandemic spreads around the world and through our community. As an institution that assumes fundamental responsibility for the overall health of the communities we serve, ASU is committed to serving as many people as possible as quickly as possible during this difficult time.
When you give to ASU, you enable the university to provide meaningful and rapid support to the people who need it most. When you give to ASU’s area of greatest need, you enable the university to maintain its agility and resilience, and adapt to meet the ever-changing needs of its community members. When you give to the Student Crisis Fund, you assist students who face financial and personal crises. When you give to COVID-19 research in the ASU Biodesign Institute, you provide direct support to dedicated scientists working around the clock on testing capabilities, treatments, virus tracking and a vaccine for COVID-19.
Working for our community
We are committed to helping people across our state impacted by these times of crisis. We invite you to support ASU's meaningful work in these focus areas:
