How to help us.....

Owing to budget shortfalls in most states, state supported institutions of higher learning are becoming increasingly dependant on donor support. If you give a gift to one of the funds listed below, all of it will go to support the NAU Geology Department. There are many ways to help out. We hope you will consider choosing one of the funds listed below for a donation. To make a donation by mail, write the check out to the NAU Foundation and indicate the specific fund in the memo section on the check. Send it to: NAU Foundation, Box 4094, Northern Arizona University, Flagstaff, AZ 86011. Or, you may contribute with your credit card (Mastercard or VISA) by calling 928-523-6755 weekdays from 8-5 MST, or go on-line to http://www.newcenturycampaign.com/. You may work for a company that will match your gift. Many other kinds of gifts are also possible, including scholarships named as you wish, real estate, securities, bequeaths, and planned giving. If these options interest you, please contact Thomas Hoisch at 928-523-1904 or thomas.hoisch@nau.edu, and we'll be sure to put you in touch with the appropriate person at the NAU Foundation.
