APU Giving Week

It's APU Giving Week, July 7 - 13, 2025. In the spirit of Peter Gordon Gould, Unanga ^x,we believe every student deserves access to higher education. This July 8, we remember our founder Peter Gordon Gould who was a visionary leader committed to education and community empowerment. At Alaska Pacific University (APU), his legacy lives on through academic excellence, cultural awareness, and service-driven leadership. Gould advocated for a private liberal arts university to serve Alaska and Alaska Native students. APU today has an established Elders Council, the Shel ch'naq'ahnilu Student Center, Alaska Native Executive Leadership Program (ANELP), and institutes honoring Alaska’s Indigenous heritage – from marine and environmental sciences to healthcare, sustainability, and public policy. At APU, we remain dedicated to Alaska’s diverse communities and people through relevant instruction and research. Donors are key partners in the continuation and growth of the unique high-quality programs, research, and student services making APU special. Every dollar makes a difference, and your contribution helps us continue our vital work.
