How to Donate
When alumni like you support private, Christian higher education with a gift to Grand Canyon University, you are investing in the future of GCU students and the surrounding community. A gift of any size is a significant way to have a direct impact. We are humbled by your generosity and support of the GCU mission.
For the Lopes that Go Places
When you purchase a GCU license plate from the Arizona Department of Transportation a portion of your proceeds goes directly to GCU’s Students Inspiring Students program where students from low-income families have the opportunity to attend GCU.
