Challenge: Please donate to the First-Generation Student Education Abroad Scholarship Fund below. 20 donations will unlock Vice Provost for Global Affairs Dr. Yimin Wang's $2,000 challenge.
Education abroad is proven to be one of the most transformational high impact educational experiences that broadens students' horizons, increases retention, success, and employment rate, and enhances students' sense of engagement, social responsibilities, and leadership skills. We aspire to provide these opportunities to all NAU students. Your donation and support will help more first-generation NAU students to participate in these life-changing educational programs.
