Learn more about your impact

The Family Spirit scholarship was established to assist West campus Mary Lou Fulton Teachers College students with a preference for a single parent with minor dependent children pursuing a first baccalaureate degree. The scholarship honors the commitments of Jacki and Howard V. Bowers to their home community of Phoenix, Arizona and to Homeward Bound, Phoenix, which works to break multi-generational cycles of homelessness, welfare dependence and domestic violence.

  • 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.

I believe ASU is a major life force in our community and I want to do my part to help it thrive."
