Areas of Greatest Need

There is Always a Need!

Students are the central focus of everything we do at Fort Lewis College. Helping Skyhawks achieve success in their educational and professional careers, building FLC into a positive economic and social force in the Four Corners region, and continually evolving the campus’ facilities and offerings to meet the needs of students today and into the future are all made possible thanks to generous donors like you.

The President's Impact Fund empowers FLC to maintain its entrepreneurial culture and approach to teaching and research. It supports the experiential learning environment for FLC students and is aligned with the College's strategic plan.

Undergraduate Research & Creative Endeavors supports our student scholars. Creative works and research are completed under the mentorship of our excellent faculty.

The Alpine Bank Emergency Fund & Persistence Grant assists students who unexpectedly encounter various challenges, such as difficulties in securing housing, affording basic necessities, accessing resources for online learning, or dealing with unforeseen expenses. These obstacles can make it challenging for students to concentrate on their academic pursuits.

Your support helps us to keep our students at the center!
