A Space to Be Fully You, Support PRISM at NAU

College is hard. Finding a place where you feel safe, seen, and supported shouldn’t be.

PRISM (People Respecting Identities/Individuals and Sexual Minorities) has a history spanning over 20 years as a club at NAU! Our mission has always stayed the same: to create a space where students can show up as their most authentic selves, build real connections, and take a breather from the stress of college life.

Who We Are (and Why We’re Here)

PRISM is an on-campus community built on belonging, connection, and care. Through weekly meetings and events, from group discussions to board game nights and low-pressure hangouts, we give students a place to relax, laugh, and feel welcomed with open arms.

For many students, PRISM isn’t just a club.

  • It’s a chosen family.
  • It’s a safe space.
  • It’s home.

Why We’re Fundraising And How You Can Help

Your support helps us continue creating a safe, affirming environment for our community. All our welcome are our PRISM club meetings and events!

Donations go toward making our weekly meetings and semester events possible, including food, supplies, and small details that help students feel comfortable and at ease the moment they walk in.

These moments matter. A relaxed, welcoming atmosphere allows students to open up, connect, and feel accepted without judgment, something that can make a huge difference during challenging college years.

The Impact You’re Making 

When you give to PRISM, you’re doing more than funding events, you’re supporting students during some of the most stressful years of their lives.

You’re helping someone:

  • Find belonging
  • Build confidence
  • Feel safe being exactly who they are

And that impact lasts far beyond college.

Thank You for Believing in Us 

We are so grateful for your support of PRISM. Your generosity helps ensure our community continues to thrive, grow, and welcome students who need it most. Thank you for helping us create a space where everyone belongs.
