ASU's Barrett, The Honors College has partnered with the NFL and Sports Metric to create the Barrett Legends Scholars Program, which provides personal development and scholarship support to Black, Indigenous and other underrepresented students of color in underserved Phoenix-area schools.
Barrett Legends Scholars receive mentorship from NFL alumni and Barrett students, faculty and staff in preparation for an honors education, and those who matriculate to Barrett are awarded a scholarship. Your gift helps fund scholarships and resources for Barrett Legends Scholars.
Impact of Donor Support
- More learners can pursue higher education. Thanks to our donors, more than 7,000 ASU students have received upwards of $32 million in scholarships with more than $39 million raised.
- 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.
- Important initiatives continue. More than $320 million in new gifts and commitments support ongoing initiatives at ASU.
- The spirit of generosity abounds. In the past year, more than 100,000 individual, corporate and foundation donors stepped forward to help the ASU community.
ASU is where I got my start, and there's a real connection made by giving back. Every little bit matters to students who are trying to live on their own and be their own person."
