Learn more about your impact
Center for Biology and Society friends and family,
Sun Devil Giving Day is Arizona State University's annual day of giving, when wonderful friends like you have the opportunity to give to funds that directly support student research and presentations. Students have traveled to such places as Brazil; Ecuador; Croatia; Italy; New Zealand; Toronto, Canada; Edinburgh, Scotland; and Puerto Rico, as well as multiple U.S. locations. It’s incredibly rewarding to support student research and witness the amazing results, and you can help meet increasing needs. We appreciate any help you can give these students, showing what our wonderful community can do together.
We have a matching campaign of up to $5,000, with a fun twist we call “equitable matching.” The younger you are, the more your money is worth and the more impact you can have! This Sun Devil Giving Day, gifts to this fund will be matched at a ratio of 5-to-1 for current students, 2-to-1 for young alumni and 1-to-1 for all other donors — until we reach $5,000. This means if you are a current student and give $10, it will turn into $60. Or if you give $20, it will become $120, and so on. And for donors who are not current students or young alumni, your dollars will still be matched 1-to-1, so $100 becomes $200.
This is an exciting opportunity. Please consider helping these amazing students.
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."
