You Make it Possible.

The COVID-19 pandemic revealed many of the pressures students face, like stress from classes, personal responsibility and plugging into a new community. As Boise State joined the rest of the nation last week in recognizing National Suicide Prevention Awareness Week, the issues of suicide and mental health are top-of-mind, and the university is working hard to address crises more effectively and prevent many situations from severely impacting students’ educational experiences.

Colonial Pipeline, Target, Adobe, Alteryx, Equifax: These are household names, not just because these companies provide important goods and services, but also because they were the victims of major cyberattacks that compromised sensitive customer information and even critical infrastructure. Boardrooms, CEOs and governments have taken notice.

Boise State University is facing the threat and helping fill new cybersecurity jobs with a slate of new programs designed for all with the help of off-campus partners and donors.

Donations to Boise State University qualify for a 50% tax credit — a reduction in the actual tax you owe. If you itemize your taxes, a donation to Boise State allows income tax deductions on both your state and federal returns, plus a 50% Idaho income tax credit.

Boise State University College of Business & Economics’ Kathy Hurley explains why you should take advantage of this tax credit.

Our student’s success is the most critical measure of Boise State’s success as a university. Through your support of scholarships and programs, talented and committed students can access affordable education. Scholarships allow students to explore future opportunities to their fullest potential, unhindered by financial uncertainty.

Your commitment to Boise State students helps to ensure that great potential is not left unrealized. Thank you for all that you do for Boise State University students!
