What is the NACAS Foundation?

We are a non-profit, charitable 501(c)(3) corporation that engages in scholarships, grants, promoting diversity of people and ideas, fostering innovation, collaboration and creative thinking to improve the quality of life for students.

Who Are We Helping?

The NACAS Foundation supports both students and the higher education professionals that serve them. Through funds, scholarships, and programs, we are able to directly support the basic needs crisis that is affecting so many. 

Why Does It Matter?

Each year, millions of students from all backgrounds plan to call their college or university their ‘home away from home.’ Their safe place. Their community where they belong and where they can easily access everything they need to explore interests, focus academically, and grow personally. Yet, for many students, even their basic needs are not being fulfilled, resulting in widespread issues like homelessness, food insecurity, and poor mental health. That’s where the Campus Care Grant comes in to advance campus initiatives designed to overcome barriers that are stunting student success.

The Campus Care Grant awards up to $25,000 annually to programs or services that support student achievement by addressing a basic need of students on campus, such as housing, food, mobility, safety, academic resources, and counseling. The NACAS Foundation developed the Campus Care Grant to expand the level of support campuses can provide to students through service delivery.
