Learn more about your impact

Your gift to the Biodiversity Knowledge Integration Center ensures that birds, bees, flowers and thousands of species are supported through our conservation work, integrated with our partners to help create a more sustainable world.

We develop natural resource management strategies that dynamically respond to accelerating structural shifts in biodiversity and ecosystem services, fueling a journey of discovery across time to enable solutions for a brighter future rich in nature and culture. Your support will help us document previously unknown species, conserve ecosystems in our backyard and across the globe, educate budding scientists, invite cross-cultural conversation, and more—all to ensure that our planet thrives for generations to come."

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.

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