Be Part of the Ashesi Solution

Every day, thanks to a global community of advocates, donors, and volunteers, 1,339 Ashesi students work hard to gain the skills they'll need to transform their continent. From Ashesi's launch in 2002, generous and insightful supporters helped develop the curriculum, gave strategic counsel, taught on campus, and helped spread the word. Friends of Ashesi raised the capital to build our world-class campus. We are deeply thankful and humbled by the generosity of our global community.

Today, a vibrant community of supporters helps propel Ashesi forward. Africa needs more from Ashesi-- more growth, more high-impact majors and more scholarships for students in need. There are many ways you can use your skills and passion to support Ashesi’s work.

Invest

Your support empowers more young Africans to create progress on their home continent. Every donation to Ashesi, of any amount, is a valued gift. Ashesi’s sustainable model means that the university’s operating expenses are funded by tuition and fees. Your tax deductible gift helps Ashesi grow, launch new programs, and provide scholarships to students in need.
