Elevate AISES on NAU Giving Day

The American Indian Science and Engineering Society (AISES) at NAU is dedicated to increasing Indigenous students in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.

But we are more than a professional organization.

We are a community of Indigenous scholars, future engineers, scientists, researchers, and leaders who support one another through the challenges of higher education. We create space for connection, mentorship, and academic growth in our chosen fields. 

For many of our members, AISES is not just a club.

  • It is support.
  • It is belonging.
  • It is possibility.

Sending Our Scholars to the National Stage

This year, we are working to send our members to the 2026 National AISES Conference in Portland, Oregon, a life-changing opportunity for Indigenous students pursuing careers in STEM.

Your support helps cover:

  • Air travel and lodging
  • Conference registration and membership fees
  • Access to career fairs, internship pipelines, and scholarship opportunities

For many of our students, financial barriers make experiences like this unattainable. With your support, they can attend, connect with employers, present research, and proudly represent NAU on a national stage.

What Your Support Makes Possible

When you give to AISES, you are supporting students who will go on to become engineers, scientists, healthcare professionals, and innovators in their communities. You are helping them gain confidence, build professional networks, and see themselves represented in industries that need their voices. 

Thank You for Your #AxeofKindness

We are deeply grateful for your generosity and belief in our mission. Your support helps remove financial barriers and opens doors that might otherwise remain closed.

Thank you for investing in our organization!
