Impact of donor support
Because of you:
- More learners can pursue higher education. In 2022, 22,000 donors contributed $66.3 million for scholarships.
- More students succeed. ASU ranks #1 among the state's public universities for its 86% first-year retention rate thanks in part to donor-funded student success initiatives.
- And donors helped ASU offer more than 4,500 hours of free tutoring.
At The Design School, we are pushing the boundaries of what design is through interdisciplinary programs, global studios, and strong relationships with industry partners and our local community. Our donors are vital partners in this journey, helping to further our mission of increasing access to education, fostering collaboration, and nurturing growth across a range of creative sectors—including design, arts, media and technology. Each contribution increases our ability to help our students thrive. Every gift, no matter how small or big, makes an impact.”
