University Fund
About the University Fund
College is expensive. Often, a student’s only hope for higher education
is a scholarship. Subsidizing this hope, the APU University Fund provides
hundreds of deserving students with scholarship money every year. From
this pool of resources, nearly 83 percent of APU students draw the vital scholarships
they need to follow their dreams at Azusa Pacific University.
How You Can Help
The University Scholarship Fund relies solely on the generous donations
of alumni, parents, and friends of APU. As tuition and other education
costs rise, it becomes increasingly important to keep this fund healthy
and growing. Your donation, regardless of its size, is significant and
essential to hundreds of students on campus today.
Furthermore, the strength of the University Scholarship Fund serves as a barometer to many foundations and corporations as they consider donation recipients. Consistent and substantial support from those closest to the university indicates the worth of the institution and increases the probability of sizeable gifts from foundations. Please prayerfully consider a commitment to give regularly to APU’s University Scholarship Fund - a single gift can change a student’s life.
How Your Company Can Help
Many companies will match their current and retired employees’ charitable gifts
dollar for dollar or even double or triple the amount. For more information,
please follow this link or contact the
Matching Gift Coordinator in the Office of University Advancement at (626)

The Fruits of Your Generosity
Those who give to Azusa Pacific University not only enjoy federal tax deductions,
but they also join a merited fellowship of benefactors. Gifts of $1,000 or
more qualify donors for membership in the President’s Circle, a core
group of supporters committed to furthering the mission and purpose of APU
through prayer, funds, promotion, and encouragement. For more information about
the President’s Circle, please click here.
The most rewarding aspect of giving, however, is knowing that the gift produces something eternal. APU students, both present and past, can attest to the miracles that made their admission and continued attendance possible. The University Scholarship Fund has often been the instrument God used to create those miracles. Through it, the rich heritage that founded this university as a training school for Christian workers is made available to countless students today as they prepare for meaningful careers that will impact the world.
