ASU Foundation The ASU Foundation is a private non-profit that engages supporters to advance the success of ASU. We are one of Arizona's oldest nonprofits. We engage.

The Arizona State University Foundation for A New American University, a subsidiary of ASU Enterprise Partners, is a private, nonprofit organization that raises and invests private contributions to Arizona State University. The foundation is one of 160,000 charities analyzed by Charity Navigator, which seeks to provide investors with background to inform their charitable donations. It has been called the "Michelin Guide to aid organizations." We are proud to have earned Charity Navigator's four-star rating, the highest possible, reserved for exceptional organizations that exceed industry standards and outperform most charities. CareerBuilder, one of the nation's largest employment websites, consistently recognizes ASU Foundation as a top place to work in Arizona. Our focus on personal and professional development is one reason we stand out. Our values:

We serve. We serve the faculty and staff of ASU to bring them resources so they can do all the great things that they do. We engage our donors, philanthropists and investors, connecting them to ASU and helping them share their time, talent and treasure. We innovate. We're always looking for new ideas, new solutions, new approaches, and new ways to address the challenges facing ASU. When we serve, engage and innovate, it shows that we care — about faculty, staff, donors, fellow employees and other partners as we bring resources to ASU. There has never been a more exciting moment to be a Sun Devil, and there have never been greater opportunities for our supporters to make a difference. By supporting ASU, you share your own personal vision for the institution and ensure that the values that have made ASU great continue to guide us for generations to come.
