Elevate the Lumberjack Emergency Assistance Fund

Elevate the Lumberjack Emergency Assistance Fund (LEAF) this Giving Tuesday!

As leaves fall in Flagstaff, Arizona, the Lumberjack Emergency Assistance Fund (LEAF) ensures no Lumberjack, wherever they're located, falls behind. LEAF and the Lumberjack CARE Center provide critical resources to help students overcome unexpected challenges that can derail their education. 

Join LEAF in Changing Lumberjack Lives 

When you give to LEAF, you help ensure Lumberjacks stay enrolled and thrive, despite hurdles they may face. We all navigate obstacles on our summits, but with proper support and navigation, we can make sure our students stay on their chosen path. 

Whether it's providing vital assistance to combat food insecurity, covering unexpected college costs, or connecting students with on-campus services, your generosity makes a direct impact on student success and overall wellness. 

Your Impact  Their Future

Your gift is more than financial support, it's a statement that Jacks take care of Jacks. This Giving Tuesday, we can show our next generation of Lumberjacks that we believe in their ability to cross that graduation stage. Together, we can elevate access to education!

Give Today

Your contribution of any size makes a true difference. Your generosity directly helps Lumberjacks through financial hardships, allowing them to focus on their studies. Together, on this global day of giving, we can create seamless pathways to success for NAU students.

Show current and future Lumberjacks you "BE-LEAF" in their potential.  Ready to make an impact? Click the "STILL TIME" button now and make your Axe of Kindness count!
