Student Health and Wellness Impact Fund
Ensure Jacks have access to affordable, equitable, and reliable health services with #AxeofKindness

Do you care about ensuring that NAU students experience a culture of caring that extends to their health, but aren’t sure where to give at NAU to make the biggest impact? We’ve made it easy! Donate to the Student Health and Wellness Impact Fund on NAU Giving Day. 

At NAU, we strive for a university culture where well-being is accessible, equitable, and prioritized at every level through evidence-informed programs and health-promoting policies.   

We are doubling down on efforts to address Arizona’s critical healthcare shortage, and our work starts with serving the health and well-being of our students. When you give to the Student Health and Wellness Impact Fund, you ensure Jacks have access to counseling services supporting their mental health, campus recreation services to promote a healthy lifestyle, personal assistive devices, and more.  

Together, we are creating a culture where all students have access to affordable, equitable, and reliable health services and programs. Learn more about health and wellness services available by visiting NAU’s Campus Health Services website.
