Our Crowdfunding Groups
It's not too late to make an impact.
You can still support our Ukrainian graduate students by making a gift on the NAU Foundation website
Today, we celebrate Ukrainian Independence Day! And we also celebrate YOU! With your support we've met our project goal! Thank you!
Because we know every dollar helps, we are increasing our goal to raise a little more to support our students.
As an update, three students have accepted the invitation to join us. Two students will arrive to Flagstaff on Friday, Maryna and Maria with her two kids. Our third student, Ilia and his spouse are working on their VISAs and they will arrive mid-September.
Maria and her two kids were recently featured in the news, visit this link to learn more about great programs across the world supporting folks like Maria.
Additionally, if you are in Flagstaff today (8.24.22) please stop by today's Flagstaff Downtown Community Market between 4pm-8pm for delicious baked goods and to learn more about our efforts to help Ukrainian graduate students continue their education in Flagstaff. Our team at Northern Arizona University NAU SBS Psychological Sciences will have a table offering cupcakes, banana nut bread muffins, an assortment of cookies! Gluten free options will be available. Today's community market is from 4-8pm (free parking after 5pm) and located downtown at Aspen Avenue & Heritage Square. Hope to see you there.
As of this week we have admitted two Ukrainian students who were civilians in the regions affected by combat.
The first student, a 26-year old female, has stated that the war has transitioned her research interests to include stress, resilience, posttraumatic stress disorder and posttraumatic growth. She has shared that our “program could help me with mastering professional skills and bringing best practices to Ukraine.”
The second student, a 26-year old male, traveling to the US with his wife, would like to extend his current research and practice on child development. He states that “theories in Ukraine mostly are connected with science of the post-Soviet space,” and he would benefit from the science-based psychology taught in the USA and at NAU’s Department of Psychological Sciences.
Your gift of $250 will help cover meals for one graduate student while they travel.
Your gift of $500 will supply one graduate student with the essentials to start their semester at NAU.
Your gift of $1,500 will cover the cost of airfare for one graduate student.
Your gift of $3,500 will cover the expenses for one graduate student.
