Giving
Private support from donors gives the Department of Geography, Sustainability, Community, and Urban Studies an edge for excellence, allowing us to reward top scholarly efforts and to competitively recruit students and faculty.
Our Funds
Gifts to the Department are used for undergraduate scholarships, graduate fellowships, and for engagement activities like seminars, lectures, and community outreach. A gift may support an existing scholarship or fund, or it may create a new fund for current needs or an endowment to support programs into the future. Gifts may be made in honor of a faculty member or friend.
