Why I Give

Two students talking on a bench in front of the School of Applied Social Science

It’s powerful to think about all the students in school right now, and everything they’ll be able to do in the future, the lives they’ll touch. I want others who share my passion to have the same experience I did—to be able to go to one of the best schools in the country and get top-tier training without a financial burden.â€
